Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have been dealing with stomach pain since 2 pm yesterday, and it is been more persistent than I initially thought. Despite taking some medication, there hasn't been any noticeable improvement, and I experienced vomiting once.Kindly help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

These symptoms can be caused by various factors like indigestion, food poisoning, gastroenteritis, or a stomach virus. It's positive that you've taken some medications, but if there's no improvement, it is advisable to seek medical attention. A healthcare professional can evaluate your symptoms through a physical examination and provide an accurate diagnosis.

In the meantime, consider these self-care measures:

  1. Stay hydrated with small sips of clear fluids like water or electrolyte solutions.

  2. Opt for bland, easily digestible foods such as crackers or toast, and avoid solid foods.

  3. Rest and get plenty of sleep to aid in the healing process.

  4. If symptoms worsen or if you experience severe abdominal pain, blood in vomit, or signs of dehydration, seek immediate medical attention.

Remember, consulting with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and tailored treatment is crucial. They can offer personalized advice based on your individual needs and conditions.

I hope this information will help you.

Thank you.
