Brief Answer:
Upper Gut Endoscopy
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
You are giving typical symptoms of duodenal ulcer. In minor variety it could be a stomach ulcer as well. However it is better to get confirmed by an Upper Gastrointerstine endoscope. It is 30 min procedure done by specialist Gastroenterologist only. Let me assure you that both are easily treatable once diagnosed correctly.
Please get this done as quickly as possible.
The above problem can occur in smokers, alcoholics, bacterial infection, too much of pain killer use.
Let me know the result.
