Suggest Treatment For Indigestion And Abdominal Discomfort
I work on the road driving a ton. The other day I was practicing tightening my stomach muscles to exercise them while driving. Tightening and releasing. Then the next day my area just below my sternum started to hurt. Felt like a bulge almost. It s uncomfortable. It hurst more at night and has lasted three days. It feels like gas and possible indigestion. Like the alien form the sing ornery movies wants to get out. Certain foods make it worse.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, two possibilities could be the cause of your symptoms one is intestinal infection and second, Hyperacidity although Hyperacidity could be the consequences of infection, and in my opinion this need to be treated with Tab Metronidazole 40 mg twice in day for five days and Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day for three weeks, take care.( Comment:- Stomach is the main gate for disease of all GI tracks and organs )
