Hi, I am a 66 year old female who has been experiencing bloating and pain on my upper right side after eating. I normally take 2 Pepcid ac s and gas-x daily. Gallbladder maybe? Never mind, I didn t realize there was a charge for this. I ll look in my at home medical books. Thank You

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have bloating and pain in upper right abdomen after eating . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like liver disease , gastritis , defect in digestive enzymes , IBS or intolerance to some food . I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Investigations like Sonogram or Upper GI endoscopy will be helpful to rule out any pathological cause for the symptoms , Doctor may prescribe pantoprazole preparation & antacid gel along with antibiotics . For now take soft, plain, non-spicy foods , drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration and avoid fast foods, carbonated drinks & gas producing food products like cabbage .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
