What Causes Sudden Onset Of Burning Sensation In The Ribcage?
I just was awoken by a burning pain that made me unable to stand up straight right in the morning dale of my rib cages. I was doubled over. Could that be an ulcer or reflex? Never felt that before in my life. Scale of pan 9. It has subsided. What could it have been?
As per your complain your complain you have problem of burning sensation that may be because of reflux or gastritis or ulcer... Without proper examination and history diagnosis not occur. Detail history and physical examination give exact idea about problems. Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis. Endoscopy can done if needed for further diagnosis. Avoid spicy food, citrus foods, coffee and chocolate etc.. Avoid alcohol drinking and smoking. Drink more water. Avoid heavy meal at night time.
I hope my guidance helpful to you.. Take care. Thank you.
