Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
With the available described symptoms, there appears to be possibility of acute gastroenteritis or peptic ulcer disease.
Ultrasound imaging is not only advised for pregnancy but also for intraabdominal pain and appendicitis and cholecystitis etc.
Presence of curling pain along with abdominal pain suggests the diagnosis.
You should remain in touch with your treating doctor and should go for prescribed medications.
If your conditions improves then you can stop treatment after 5-7 days.
If your conditions won't improve then you should also go for CT/ MRI scan and endoscopy.
Meanwhile, you should also take proton pump inhibitors along with antacids.
Take care,
Dr. Mayank Bhargava
