How To Treat Severe Gastric Problems With Pain In The Upper Right Abdomen?

I am experiencing severe gastro problems with pain in the upper right abdomen. I am nauseaus and vomited a couple times with only a bitter foam coming up. I feel very bloated and acidy. A gallbladder scan was normal and was given a strong acid reducer, but still no relief. Any suggestions?

Hi and thanks for the query,
Gastritis today is thought to be caused by the bacterium , helicobacter pylori. it imperative you get tested for it first if you have not done so yet. You need a course of antibiotics to get this germ eradicated. A healing phase that could range from 4 weeks to 8 weeks depending on the intensity ulcers if present. Proton pump inhibitors like omeprazole are then used in this case. A fibroscopy could be required to make a definitive diagnosis. dyspepsia, another medical condition also has a similar presentation in some persons. kind regards
