What Do Pain And Loud Rumbling Noise In The Abdomen Immediately After Eating Indicate?

Posted on Fri, 7 Sep 2018

Question: Abdominal pain right under left rib cage. Also notices loud rumbling noises even when i just finished eating

Answered by Dr. Grzegorz Stanko (40 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Peptic ulcer most likely.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Thank you for the query.

Such symptoms are usually caused by an ulcer located in the stomach. Especially, if it is more intense after fatty foods or coffee.

The pain is usually dull. Nausea can appear.

I'd suggest you consult a Gastroenterologist and get gastroscopy done. You should also avoid fatty foods, coffee, chocolate, orange juice.

Hope this helps.

Feel free to ask further.

Regards.
