Brief Answer:
Likely acute gastritis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

I have read your query and understand the concern.

Gas trouble in stomach with indigestion could be related to dyspepsia or acute gastritis but it needs further evaluation by clinical examination and various tests to arrive at a certain conclusion if you suffer from it frequently and since long time.

However,at present I would suggest you to try symptomatic over the counter medications with STRICT dietary precautions to get relief from it.

1) Take over the counter antacids tablets like Tab.Pantoprazole 40mg with Tab.Gas-X twice daily to get relief from the symptoms of gas trouble and if you have sharp burning gas pain.

2) Take syrup digene 2 TSF three times a day which will also be helpful.

3) Avoid hot,oily and spicy foods and prefer HOME food instead of food from hotels or restaurants.

5) Avoid eating full stomach one at a time rather, take small meals frequently.

6) Have soft diet only for initial few days.

7) Avoid complex carbohydrates like beans, potato and carbonated beverages and milk based products which are hard to digest.

8) Drink plenty of water and fruit juices the day.

9) There are certain digestive enzymes (Unienzyme once daily) available over the counter which will also be helpful in the digestion of carbohydrates and minimize the gas production.

Zoxan-Oz is a antibiotic and nutrolin capsules are probiotics which may give you temporary relief but you will need to stop further triggering factors for gas trouble causing acute gastritis.

With above symptomatic treatment and dietary precautions,we may expect to see improvement within 1 or 2 weeks but in case if problem persists longer, then I will advise to see gastro-physician who can order various tests (like routine blood works,abdominal ultrasound and upper GI endoscopy) which may enable us to come to a particular diagnosis.

Hope this detailed explanation will be helpful.

Regards,

Dr.Sandip Kabra
