How Can severe Abdominal Pain Be Treated?
The area to the left of heart and above stomach area hurts and burns, it is above the ribs and I cannot figure out what it can be. It only occurs occasionally, maybe twice a week. Does not seem to be an organ, but more on the skin, can you help or do I need to make a doctor's appointment

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be due to costochondritis, gastritis, peptic ulcer, pancreatitis.
I would suggest to consult internal medicine specialist for examination and undergo clinical examination, blood tests like CBC, ESR, CRP, amylase, LFT, USG scan if needed.
You can take following advises:
Antiinflammtory drugs like diclogesic SR
Apply dolopar gel
Antacid syrup like mucine gel
Avoid exertion
Take rest
Other specific treatment depend on cause
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
