Suggest Treatment For Back Pain , Abdominal Pain And Light Headedness
For about 48 hours now, my head has been pounding and I ve felt extremely light headed. Also my back hurts as well as the upper part of abdominal. However sometimes it is my whole abdominal. I try to maintain a healthy lifestyle and I have regular bowel movements. Any idea what it could be? Should I see my local doctor?
As per your symptoms there is possibility of gastritis leading to abdominal pain.
I will advise to start antacids [proton pump inhibitors like] rabeprazole 20 mg twice a day. Sucralfate will protect gastric mucosa and will give protective covering.
MRI spine will help to confirm reason for back pain. If required you may need urine investigation.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
