What Causes Stomach Pain And Loss Of Appetite After An Accident?
I was in a car accident on Friday and as of yesterday I had a sharp pain in my stomach after I tried to eat. I don t have an appetite but I did try to eat and my stomach is hurting just about where the seatbelt was. I went to the er after the accident with upper neck and back pain. I m just nervous as to why my stomach hurts but don t want to make a mountain out of nothing.

Hello, I think very badly hurt by the accident. If I am your treating physician I want information regarding USG report? What medication you are taking? Because there are two possibilities. Either you have trauma related to accident or you have gastritis due to drug or trauma. In the first case you immediately have to consult near by surgeon. In the second case take the strong anti acidity agent like pantoprazole 40mg two times a day half an hour before meal. In case of further querry you can contact me. Thanks Dr. Arun Tank
