Abdominal Burning, Pain On The Right Side Below Rib Cage. Mostly At Night. Suggestions?

hi there, I have been suffering from abdominal burning and pain mainly on my right side ,just around the base of my rib cage.for about 5 weeks.
Pain does travel through my whole upper abdominal area , sometimes little sharp pains.
Most of the discomfort is at night and once i sleep the pain has gone in the morning, I have not lost weight and still feel hungry.
Any suggestions/? i have been taking lalso alo vera juice and slippery elm.

Hello,

The most common cause for pain in that area is due to Gastritis(Inflammation of the stomach).
Proton pump inhibitors will help in reducing the pain and inflammation.
You may need an ultrasound of the abdomen and upper GI scope to diagnosis the condition.
Consult your doctor for more help.
