What Causes Pain Below The Sternum Of A 25-year-old?
Hi, my 25 year old son is having pain just below his sternum, excessive gas and bloating. He took some pepto bismol and threw that up. We walked and he was able to relieve some of the gas and bloating. I m concerned it is his gall bladder. He doesn t want to go to the urgent care center, but I m not sure if he really shouldn t go. Your suggestions?

Hello,
These symptoms can be due to dyspepsia caused by stomach infection or gall bladder. I will advise an ultrasound of abdomen to diagnose it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
