Upper abdominal pain and stomach noises for 3 day

Nguyễn Xuân Hiệp

I have been having dull upper abdominal pain with occasional sharp pain for the past 3 days. The pain is located in the upper middle abdomen. My stomach often makes gurgling noises. I have bowel movements and my stool is loose but not watery. I do not have nausea, vomiting, heartburn, bloating, fever, or loss of appetite. The pain is not severe but uncomfortable and comes and goes. I am worried about whether this could be a digestive problem such as gastritis or bowel issues, and whether I need to see a doctor or do any tests. What could be the possible causes and what should I do at home? When should I seek medical care?

Hello,

1. Most likely causes: Mild gastritis/acid irritation, gas or gut motility changes, or a mild stomach infection.

2. If symptoms persist or worsen, You can undergo tests such as: Stool test Blood tests H. pylori test (for gastritis) Ultrasound (if pain pattern changes)

At 21 years old, with mild, non-progressive symptoms, this is most often a temporary digestive upset that resolves with simple care.

Home care : Small regular meals, avoid spicy/oily food, Take only warm water, Take probiotics, reduce stress

Take Tab Omeprazole 20 mg 1-0-0 30 mins before breakfast

I trust this helps Thank you

Your symptoms are most consistent with mild gastritis or indigestion

This is very common and usually temporary

Home care + light diet usually resolves it

Not an emergency at this stage

Hello Nguyen Thanks for describing your symptoms so clearly. Based on what you’ve shared—dull upper abdominal pain, occasional sharp pain, loose (but not watery) stools, gurgling sounds, and no severe symptoms like vomiting, fever, or loss of appetite—the most likely causes are:

Possible Causes: - Mild gastritis or indigestion:Irritation of the stomach lining can cause upper abdominal pain and gurgling. - Viral or mild bacterial infection:Can cause loose stools and mild discomfort. - Dietary changes or stress: Sometimes, changes in food or stress can upset digestion.

What you can do at home: - Eat small, bland meals (rice, curd, bananas, toast). - Avoid spicy, oily, or heavy foods for a few days. - Stay hydrated—drink water, ORS, or coconut water. - Rest and avoid stress. - You can try a probiotic (like curd or commercially available ones) to help your gut.

Rx- Rifaximin 400 mg - once a day for 3 days Pantop dsr - once empty stomach before breakfast Meftal spas- once a day if pain persist

Thank you

Upper abdominal pain with gurgling noises and loose stool can stem from various digestive issues. Considering your symptoms, possibilities might include gastritis, gastroenteritis, or less likely, irritable bowel syndrome. Gastritis involves inflammation of the stomach lining and can cause pain and gurgling, often related to diet or NSAID use. Gastroenteritis, a stomach bug or food-related infection, fits your symptoms too, typically causing loose stools and stomach noises. Given the absence of severe symptoms like fever, vomiting, or significant weight loss, this scenario may be self-limiting and could improve with home management. Try adjusting your diet by eating bland foods such as plain rice, bananas, applesauce, and toast. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of clear fluids like water or broth. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods, as they might irritate the stomach further. Over-the-counter antacids or anti-gas medications might offer some relief if gastritis or mild indigestion the cause. However, take care with medication and ensure it’s appropriate for your situation. Pay attention to any red-flag symptoms like persistent or worsening pain, severe diarrhea, vomiting blood, black stools, or unintended weight loss. These would warrant further assessment by a healthcare provider to rule out more significant issues like peptic ulcers or gallbladder diseases. If symptoms persist beyond a week, a medical check-up would be wise for a clear diagnosis and targeted treatment.
