What Causes Upper Stomach Pain?

Hi I have upper stomach pain all the time. For a week or two it will hurt all day, every day. But then it will go away for a week and then come back. I have indigestion problem because I don't/can't burp. I just make these little hiccup sounds to release my gas, which I have heard means you have acid reflux. I have tried gas medicines but nothing seems to help. What us going on?

Hi...

Welcome to healthcare magic.

Avoid gaseous foods and fatty foods.
Drink more water per day..

I hope this will help you.
