What Causes Pain Under Ribs, Nausea And Feeling Of Fullness After Meal?
Question: I have pain under left rib sometes. Nausea, and feel full when eating very little? Been two weeks now
Brief Answer:
Gastritis / Gastric ulcer. Needs evaluation and management
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. pain under ribs with nausea and feeling of fullness with slight meal indicates a gastritis. An inflammation of gastric mucosa with or without an ulcer is likely explanation.
It needs antacids, some proton pump inhibitors, diet and lifestyle modifications like avoidance of spices, alcohol, sweets and sugary beverages, chocolates etc. Eating small frequent meals and preferring food rich in fiber and more fluids are advised.
Get evaluated to rule out other causes and see what comes up but it is more likely a gastritis.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
