What Causes Discomfort And Pain In Abdomen With Nausea?
I started experiencing pain in my stomach and back after going to bed. I almost feel nauseous but I have discomfort when I touch my stomach area. I had gastric sleeve surgery in February & wonder if there is something going on or if it is possible I am coming down with a stomach virus. I do not want to go to the ER if unnecessary. My blood pressure was 126/72 a short time ago so I do not feel it is my heart. I took a Zantac to see if that might give me relief. Any suggestions?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have discomfort and pain in abdomen with nausea. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like gastroenteritis , panic attack , irritable bowel syndrome , food poisoning , lactose intolerance or giardiasis . It may also occur due to complication of surgery but chances are rare . I would suggest you to eat light and non spicy specially at night and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain . If zantac is giving relief then continue it . But If condition doesn't get well then consult gastroenterologist for proper examination with the help of ultrasound , endoscopy and stool test . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics or albendazole , laxative , omeprazole and analgesic .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
