Suggest Treatment For Abdominal Pain

Hello, I'm 16 years old. For the past 2 and a half weeks i've had mild abdominal pains, i've been feeling light headed for the past 4 days. I'm really worried, it is hard for me to concentrate on my gcses with this in my head and my parents say i'm just being a hypocondriac. Please help. Thank you.

Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern.

I would empirically recommend a two week course of a
PPI such as Pantoprazole and a pro kinetic
like itopride to see for improvement, If your symptoms persist please fix an appointment with your doctor so that a physical exam is performed after a complete history and the necessary investigations are done to look for any other cause. I would also recommend a psychiatric visit to rule out anxiety or depression

wishing you best of health

Thanks
