General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Since 2 weeks right sided abdominal pain is not subsided. Hence investigation is needed with USG abdomen for that. If gall stone, fatty liver or any organic cause is present than will be detected by USG. According to the cause specific treatment is given. If pain occurs in particular position then it might be from muscle strain. For bloating take Pantoprazole for a week if acid reflux or gastric indigestion is associated.

Eat slowly and avoid stress. Include green leafy vegetables and fruits more in diet. Gas-forming foods like cabbage, cauliflower, and onion to be taken less. Consult physician for examination and discuss all these.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
