Hello

Thanks for the query

Pain around the umbilicus is suggestive of appendicitis, I strongly advice you to meet a general surgeon immediately for an examination and emergency ultra sound abdomen since it is getting worse. I strongly advice you not to ignore this symptom any further. Antacids are of no help as pain around the umbilicus does not indicate gastritis

I hope I was help

Regards
