Hello and welcome to HCM
Before commenting anything it is important to know the exact location of your pain.
Abdomen is a big area and pain at different sites signify different cause arising from different organs.
I advice you to visit your physician for examination.
The symptoms associated with indigestion or 'gas' are fullness in the upper abdomen (above the umblicus), burning sensation, bloating, sour fluid regurgitating in the mouth.
If your pain is associated with these symptoms then it is indigestion.
You can take 'Rabeprazole 20mg' empty stomach or any time when you feel the discomfort.
Besides medication avoid fatty and spicy food.
Do not consume tea, coffee or alcohol before sleeping.
If symptoms are not relieved get an upper GI endoscopy done.
Thanks and take care
