Question : Two different nights I have had pain across my stomach area. After Saturday night, on Sunday morning I had heaving and nausea with throwing up something like bile. I believe I've had this same pain years ago when I had a hernia. The same pain happened again last night.

Brief Answer: Possibility of bowel obstruction Detailed Answer: Hello. Thanks for writing to XXXXXXX I have studied your case and history. There is possibility of bowel obstruction due to previous surgery or infection possibility below duodenum. I will advise you to investigate like Ultrasonography pelvis and abdomen. If required CT abdomen may be done Till time start antacids [proton pump inhibitors like] rabeprazole -D. There can be possibility associated gastric infection if you are having fever? Or diarrhoea? Try to maintain body fluid by increasing fluid intake, take easily digestible food. You need to consult your treating doctor for further investigation. Hope this answers your query.
