Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

You mention In chief complain that severe abdominal pain that at night and relieve by water.That because of peptic ulcer.

Long time taking of NSAIDS drugs also lead to peptic ulcer.

H.pylori infection can cause peptic ulcer in stomach.

More drinking alcohol lead to peptic ulcer.
Stressful condition is also lead ulcer in abdomine.
Spicy foods may lead peptic ulcer.

Drink more water and avoid spicy foods.
Avoid alcohol and smoking.
Proton pump inhibitor help to relieve peptic ulcer symptoms.

After taking this much care still symptoms are present than do ultrasonography for further diagnosis.

Wish you a good health.
Thanks.
