Question : My wife is having stomach pain. She gets this pain regularly on the left hand top side of the stomach.

The pain is there for the last 2 weeks but not regularly. Any assistance on this?

Hi

Thanks for posting your query

As you would be aware online consultation solely relies on the history that you provide

This is very superficial information

This is what I need :
1] How did it start ?
2] What is the nature of pain - burning, colicky ?
3] Associated with burping, nausea?
4] How is it relieved ?
5] What is her diet pattern ? Spicy/Junk ?
6] Is she on any medicines?
7] Do you have any reports ?

Get back with this information and I will help you out
Wishing your wife a speedy recovery
