What Causes Severe Pain In The Upper Abdomen?

I just had another episode where the highest part of my stomach hurts. The pain is very intense and it feels like something is stuck trying to make its way down into the stomach but I have not eaten anything. It hurts all the way through to the back. I usually will take a Gas-x melting strip and then I start burping and burping for like 15 mins. I am left feeling weak, shaky and sweaty. What is going on?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi welcome to the health care magic

Here it seems to be acute gastritis or ulcer

For that rabeprazole taken for two week minimum

Cooked oatmeal help in soothing stomach

Avoid excess spicy foods

Green leafy vegetables, fruits taken more

Non veg is avoided

Gas x helpful if gas present

If no benefit noted than USG done and h. Pylori testing done by urea breath test

Take care

Consult physician for examination
