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, I have been experiencing some weird rumbling sounds coming from my right ribs. I just thought I was hungry and ate something, but the rumbling wouldn t stop. It was constantly rumbling for the past 2 days. And I am getting concerned about this.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The rumbling sounds you are hearing from your stomach are intestinal sounds produced due to movement of undigested food and gas. If it is not resolving then you should get yourself checked by a gastroenterologist as it may be a sign of some underlying GI disorder. Meanwhile you can start taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole which may help to relieve the gas production and in turn relieve the rumbling sounds.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
