What Is The Treatment Of Nausea And Discomfort In The Stomach?
I'm a 30 year old female and I just had an ultrasound today of my stomach....I've been experiening a lot of tummy issues for a few years now - mostly nausea. When I was having my ultrasound done I had noticed some lighter white circles that were around the size of a quarter. When I asked what they were, she told me that she can't say, but they are "unusual" should I be concerned, because I feel like I'm loosing my mind over it being something serious like cancer!!

hi this is dr.subhadeep.thanks for the opportunity to help you.from your description it is not very clear cut still I will try to help you.
your age is 30 years very young and unlikely age for cancer.
you haven't elaborated any other symptom other than nausea like weight loss within 4 years,wether you felt any mass abdomen, weather you r having any reflux of food vomitting,blood in stool etc.
please don't mind but please can you let me know weather your periods r regular or not.
in the absence of all the other mentioned symptoms I can only think of chronic gastritis and those white lines can be due to fibrosis of the pylorus of the stomach.malignancy is a rare possibility.kindly elaborate your USG report.
USG is always not significant as it is observer dependent so a CECT and UGI scopy will be ideal for diagnosis.
if suppose your kidney functions r not normal or if you r having amenorrhea an MRI abdomen will be a safer choice. kindly get back to me with a CECT/MRI abdomen report.
hope the consultation was beneficial.
for your nausea you can use a combination of tab pantopazol+t.domperidone combination BD before food.
let me know if the consultation was beneficial
regards
