Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In The Ribs

I had a sudden onset of pain on my right side, just under my rib cage. I went to bed and shortly had to get up due to a sour burp, feeling in my throat. I did some stretching and took anti-acids. I did start burping quite a bit so I m assuming it is/was a gas pocket. Thoughts?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be a acid reflux, muscle strain.
Take following advises:
Tablet pantoprazole plus domperidone
Tablet gas x and unienzyme
Avoid exertion and take proper rest
Apply warm pad application and local volini gel,
Take small frequent light meal rather than large meal
If not responds then consult the MD physician and go for investigation like chest Xray, upper Gi endoscopy.
Hope this may help you
