Question: Hi, I've had an upset stomach since around 11pm last night to now at 7:50pm. I haven't had any constipation, or diarrhea. I've been drinking water mostly. I was wondering whether my stomach is feeling uncomfortable due to gas/air in my stomach

Brief Answer:
It could be due to Acid peptic disease

Detailed Answer:
Hi
If the discomfort is above belly button in the middle,it could be due to Acid peptic disease.
Sometimes,it is associated with nausea.
I prescribe Proton pump inhibitor like RABEPRAZOLE and Domperidone combination capsule,Anti flatulent tablet.
If there is no response,I will ask for Upper GI endoscopy, Ultrasound abdomen.In early cases of Appendicitis,the pain will be diffuse in the Abdomen.Ultrasound will give a clue.
Please avoid Spicy food.Take fresh fruits and vegetables.
As it is not associated with loose stool, infection of the gut can be ruled out.Hope there is no Mucus in stool.
Nothing to worry.
Please consult a Gastroenterologist and proceed further
Hope I answered your query.If you have any questions,I will clarify further.
Regards
