Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Advised Carafate, Pepcid For Gastritis. Vomits, Pain Behind Right Middle Rib After Having Beer. Liver Problem?
I ve been (unofficially) diagnosed by ER doctors and my physician to have gastritis. I m currently taking Carafate and Pepcid Complete, but nothing seems to completely help. I had 2 beers about an hour ago. About 10-20 minutes after the beers I vomited, and now I have pain and gas in- what appears to be- my stomach. But the pain I m experiencing in my right side is directly behind the middle of my rib cage. Can pain in this area be normal with gastritis ? I also have reason to believe it could possibly liver pain. But I doubt my liver would hurt after one beer, I have no history of liver problems (that I m aware of). Ideas ?
Hi Pain due to gastritis can be in the upper part of the abdomen ,mostly on the right side. Alchohol directly affects the stomach lining leading to pain and vomiting. It is not related to liver. Please take Rabeprazole and domperidone capsule.Add sucralfate syrup. Once the symptoms are subsided,get an upper GI endoscopy and Ultrasound abdomen. Wish you good health Regards
