What Is The Cause For Painful Bloating Feeling In The Stomach?

I get a bloated feeling in my stomach and the stomach hurts. The feeling comes and goes. It does not make any difference what I eat or even if I eat. I had an endoscopy done and found out that the bottom of my stomach is red. What does this mean. Also found out that I have a hostel hernia

Hi,

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
As per your symptoms and endoscopy findings its likely that you have are having gastric ulcer. Its basically laceration in protective layers of stomach and when stomach acid touches that ulcer and you experiences pain at that time.

A hiatus hernia or hiatal hernia is a type of hernia in which the upper part of the stomach protrudes into the chest cavity through the esophageal hiatus in the diaphragm and it can cause different symptoms like reflux or patient can have some complications like strangulation of hernia portion of stomach but its very rare.
