I Have A Pulsating Pain On Upper Left Abdomen Below Ribs, Can It Be From Gastritis Or Something Else ?
Hi. I have a pulsating pain (every three to 50 seconds) on the left upper abdomen just below the ribs from two days now. I have had gastritis problem in past and a little also now. Can it be from gastritis ? Do I need to visit a doctor or I can try with a diet first. Can it be something serious. Thanks

Hi, Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum.
It may be related to anxiety but may or may not be related to Gastritis. If you are overweight, reduce your weight by regular exercises, avoid spicy foods and drink plenty of water. Eat and sleep on time and avoid skipping meals and stress. Take Tab. Pantodac 40mg daily on empty stomach half hour before breakfast for 2 weeks. If pulsatile pain persists even after this, get a physical evaluation by a Doctor. Take Care.
