What Causes Tightness/pulling Sensation Above Nipple While Having Duodenal Ulcer?

Dear Doctor,

I am diagnosed by a gastro.specialist after endoscopy that i hage duodenal ulcer and is taking PARIET 20mg (each tablet contains 20mg rabeprazole sodium and mannnitol) and Domperidone 10mg - twice daily before food for the last two months.still i am suffering of my initial problems of excessive burping, discomfort over breast area - ie tightness / pulling sensation and some time there is a sudden pricking /pinching sensation above nipple area.....

is it necessary for me to go to any other specialist or can continue with my visit to the gastroenterologist... please advise,,,

with thanks...

Hello dear Prasad Nair , hi

Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have evaluated your query in details .

* The breast condition is in relation with some sort of ligament or neuronal
issue , nothing to do with duodenal ulcer ; needs to consult a general
surgeon rather than gastroenterologist .

Wishing you fine recovery .
