What Could Be The Reason For Getting Sudden Pain In My Liver?
I get a sudden pain in my liver (i think) perhaps every day for the last 6 months, only for a few seconds each day. I had a blood test and came back negative for hepatitis. It doesn't hurt to touch and I notice I get it straight after eating or drinking. what could this be?

Hello
Your problem may be due to many reasons like acidity.However,other causes like liver problems etc should be excluded.
You need proper evaluation and further investigations.
I suggest my patients to take combination tablet of proton pump inhibitors like tablet omeprazole and domperidone half hour before food in the morning.
Ultrasound of abdomen and upper GI endoscopy can be done after clinical evaluation.
Treatment depend upon clinical findings and investigation reports.
Take Care
