Hello Doctor,
Over the past year, I've been experiencing recurring abdominal pain and nausea. Occasionally, this is followed by vomiting. I’ve tried over-the-counter medications, but they don't seem to help much. Can you help me understand what might be causing this, and what steps I should take next?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Recurring abdominal pain and nausea can result from:
1. Gastritis or Peptic Ulcer Disease
2. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)
3. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
4. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
5. Food Allergies or Intolerances
Next Steps:
1. Blood Tests to check for infections or inflammation.
2. Imaging (Ultrasound or CT) to assess abdominal organs.
3. Avoid known triggers like specific foods or habits.
Thanks
