Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, this is the second day that it feels like I have indigestion. I have a lot of burping, and until I took some pepto bismol, I was having painful spasms just under my ribs and at my diaphragm. What should I watch for in this before going to the doctor.
It may be due to muscle sprain. For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen. Continue physical therapy. In case of not getting relief, you may require X-ray or computed tomography chest after chest physician consultation. Continue breathing exercises.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
