Hi,

Regarding the the discomfort in your abdomen. The reasons for the same could be:

1) Related to mild Gastritis or colitis.

2) Any infection could also lead to such symptoms.

Treatment:

1) Take Antacids like Mucaine gel twice daily.

2) Proton pump inhibitor drugs like omeprazole/pantoprazole once a day before breakfast is suggested.

3) If you have features like severe abdominal pain, loose motions then I would have recommended Ofloxacin and Ornidazole drugs for a patient with similar complaints.

4) Take sporlac sachets twice daily with water.

This will improve gastric flora. Avoid alcohol and spicy foods. I recommend that you take the medications only after getting a PRESCRIPTION from your doctor.

Hope these suggestion help you. Contact for further follow up.

Thanks with best regards,
Dr. Suhas Chauhan
