What Causes Pain Around Liver And Stomach Area After Eating?

I suffered from Hepatitis 5 years ago. Since then, I used to have liver inflammation once in 6 months while I eat bad food or too fatty food. During the last 15 days I suddenly started having pain in my liver area and now I feel that paid is everywhere around my stomach, especially when I am hungry. If I drink water or if I eat something I am fine. I tested my blood and everything seems to be fine except ALT which is 49 in place of 0 - 45. Sometimes I have pain just below my ribs after eating. I do not have constipation and I go to toilet normally. I do not see blood in stool. I do not have fever or nausea. I feel uncomfortable and mild pain in my stomach specially when pressed all over my stomach. Please help me.

Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist.

Pain appears to be be due to acid peptic disease. For which I will advise you to avoid tea, coffee, oily and spicy food. Also avoid citrus fruits. Among medications take a proton pump inhibitor like rabeprazole and a prokinetic agent like domperidone. Hepatitis is usually painless unless or until liver is enlarged leading to streching of the capsule.

I hope I have answered your query and this will help you . Wish you a good health
