What Causes Sore Stomach And Pain In Abdomen After Endoscopy?

I had a gastroscopy a week ago - my stomach is still very sore (it wasn't before the procedure). It feels hard in places - it was soft before. My left upper back and my lower abdomen on both sides hurt. I feel sick which I didn't before. Is this normal?

Hi and thanks for the query,
It is not rare to observe some disturbances as such that generally fade out with time. Proton pump inhibitors at low doses like omeprazole for about a week and mild pain killers should sufficient to manage these symptoms.
