Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have recurring gas and acidity problem for last three months. At present, I am taking liquid Sucral and tablet Sompraz 40. I have already got an ultrasound of the stomach, endoscopy, LFT, and jaundice test. All the tests were normal, except a small ulcer patch was seen in the stomach during the endoscopy.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  • It is better to get tested for Helicobacter pylori, which is a very important cause for recurrent gastric and duodenal ulcers. If the test comes positive, then you can use treatment for H.pylori, which will cure your problem.
  • Until the, I suggest you try doing the following:
  1. Avoid junk foods, fast foods, and spicy food.
  2. Take plenty of water.
  3. Try taking Sompraz (Esomeprazole) on an empty stomach.

Revert with the test reports.
