Brief Answer:
I need a few more details.
Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
You seem to be suffering from Acute Acid Peptic Disease that might be NSAID induced as you have mentioned you are taking NSAIds
I would advise you following:
1. To take a combination of Pantoprazole and Domperidone once a day.
2. To take soft ,bland diet.
3. You can take anti acidity and anti dyspepsic syrup like Digene or Gelusil 2 tea spoon full thrice a day.
4. Avoid pain killers.
Follow these measures for 5 days.
If you pain persists I would advise you to get your Ultrasound Abdomen done to rule out any Gall bladder issues.
In case you have recurrent bouts of these symptoms you would require an Upper GI Endoscopy to rule out any Peptic ulcers.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
