What Causes Pain In Upper Abdomen After Eating Or Bending?

I had a confirmed case food poisoning a couple days ago, not vomiting just constant diarrhea. Now I've got pain at what feel like the top of my stomach right below the sternum. It hurts after bending over, or eating food. Is it just heartburn and need time to heal or am I dealing with something else.

Hi,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic.

I have read your query and understand your concern.

Your upper abdomen pain is due to gastritis. And for that you should start on a ppi tablet like pantaprazole or omeprazole on empty stomach for a couple of weeks.

Avoid tea, coffee, soda drinks and spicy foods.

Hope i have been helpful.

Regards,
Dr. Ashish Verma
