What Causes Constant Pain In The Upper Abdomen?
Over the course of the last two years I ve had off and on upper adominal stomach pains that are constant and can last for days. I ve had an ultrasound about a year ago to check for galstones or appendicitis but nothing has come up. I even tried changing my diet to a very health one and nothing has help. I m concerned it could be an ulcer. Also no medication seems to help he pain

Hello,
It may be due to chronic gastritis.
For further assessment you may require complete hemogram, upper GI endoscopy after gastroenterologist consultation.
Till then you can take tablet pantoprazole and syp mucaine gel.
Avoid hot and spicy foods.
Avoid lying down after meals.
Do regular physical exercise
