Doctor please I have going through the ulcer for about 4years. Idon't really know the cause of it, but I could remember that , during high school I use to skip breakfast till after school just to save money to buy textbook. Now the ulcer keep getting worse. If I don't or when I eat, it always a problem. I might get uncomfortable with my stomach throughout the whole day. I have tried alot of lifestyle changes, stopped eating a lot of food butI still have the symptoms. The most embarrassing thing is gow I release gas from my mouth it so embarrassing that I hit my chestseveral times before it comes out. If am doing anything I have to pause immediately, hold my breath untili release the gas out of my throat . And it might take up to five seconds. And it never soft with my throat and it so loud that the next person beside me will get irritated and it so frequent. Please I.need apermanently solution that will help me. My hospital here just keep giving me antacid and omeprazole. It not helping at all. And it been years since I TOOK NSAIDS

I am a 2023 batch passout and working as a general physician right now, based in Hanumangarh, Rajasthan. Still kinda new in the bigger picture maybe, but honestly—every single day in this line teaches you more than textbooks ever could. I’ve had the chance to work under some pretty respected doctors during and after my graduation, not just for the clinical part but also to see how they handle people, real people, in pain, in panic, and sometimes just confused about their own health. General medicine covers a lot, right? Like from the smallest complaints to those random, vague symptoms that no one really understands at first—those are kinda my zone now. I don’t really rush to label things, I try to spend time actually listening. Feels weird to say it but ya, I do take that part seriously. Some patients just need someone to hear the whole story instead of jumping to prescription pads after 30 seconds. Right now, my practice includes everything from managing common infections, blood pressure issues, sugar problems to more layered cases where symptoms overlap and you gotta just... piece things together. It's not glamorous all the time, but it's real. I’ve handled a bunch of seasonal disease waves too, like dengue surges and viral fevers that hit rural belts hard—Hanumangarh doesn’t get much spotlight but there’s plenty happening out here. Also, I do rely on basics—thorough history, solid clinical exam and yeah when needed, investigations. But not over-prescribing things just cz they’re there. One thing I picked up from the senior consultants I worked with—they used to say “don’t chase labs, chase the patient’s story”... stuck with me till now. Anyway, still learning every single day tbh. But I like that. Keeps me grounded and kind of obsessed with trying to get better.

Hello Fahad living with these symptoms for so long must be really tough and frustrating. From what you’ve described, it sounds like you have chronic stomach discomfort (possibly due to an ulcer) and frequent, loud belching (gas from your mouth), which is causing you embarrassment and affecting your daily life.

What could be happening: - Chronic ulcer:Skipping meals in the past may have contributed, but ulcers can also be caused by infection (H. pylori bacteria), long-term use of painkillers (NSAIDs), or stress. - Excessive belching:This can happen with ulcers, acid reflux, or gastritis. Swallowing air (especially when anxious or eating quickly) can also make it worse.

What you can do: - See a gastroenterologist:You need a proper diagnosis. The doctor may suggest tests like an endoscopy or a breath/stool test for H. pylori. - Avoid irritants: Stay away from spicy, oily, acidic foods, caffeine, and carbonated drinks. - Eat small, frequent meals:Don’t skip meals, and eat slowly. - Manage stress: Stress can worsen stomach symptoms, so relaxation techniques may help.

If you need any help or need medicine for h pylori you can further discuss it with me . But first go investigations for h pylori .

Thank you

It sounds like you’ve been dealing with a very persistent and frustrating issue. First things first, while many ulcers are related to Helicobacter pylori infection, long-term NSAIDs use can also be a cause. Since you’ve mentioned it’s been years since you took NSAIDs, let’s consider other factors. Extended periods without food could have contributed to your gastric issues, but more importantly, you’re describing symptoms that might suggest a bigger underlying problem like H. pylori infection, gastritis or even gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). If these haven’t been tested yet, addressing them could be a real game-changer. I’d recommend getting tested specifically for H. pylori, as eradicating this bacteria could offer significant relief. Treatment involves a combination of antibiotics usually amoxicillin and clarithromycin or metronidazole, taken together with a proton pump inhibitor like the omeprazole you’ve been trying. If you’ve been diagnosed with GERD as well, lifestyle modifications like eating smaller, more frequent meals, avoiding trigger foods (citrus, caffeinated beverages, spicy foods), and not lying flat shortly after meals can be effective. Also, elevating your bed head by about 6-8 inches can aid in reducing nighttime symptoms. The persistent belching could be related to swallowing air along with a hypothesized connection to the stomach lining irritation. Be conscious of how fast you’re eating, as rushing meals could lead to more air intake. While antacids and omeprazole are common treatments, they often don’t solve the problem alone, especially if H. pylori or GERD isn’t properly managed. Finally, if these steps don’t lead to improvement, consider consulting a gastroenterologist to explore further diagnostic evaluations like endoscopy, as there might be other less common causes at play like peptic ulcer disease or esophageal motility disorders that need specialized management. Prioritize following up with a healthcare professional for a personalized examination into all these avenues.

I am a general dentist with 3+ years of working in real-world setups, and lemme say—every single patient teaches me something diff. It’s not just teeth honestly, it’s people… and how they feel walking into the chair. I try really hard to not make it just a “procedure thing.” I explain stuff in plain words—no confusing dental jargon, just straight talk—coz I feel like when ppl *get* what's going on, they feel safer n that makes all the difference. Worked with all ages—like, little kids who need that gentle nudge about brushing, to older folks who come in with long histories and sometimes just need someone to really sit n listen. It’s weirdly rewarding to see someone walk out lighter, not just 'coz their toothache's gone but coz they felt seen during the whole thing. A lot of ppl come in scared or just unsure, and I honestly take that seriously. I keep the vibe calm. Try to read their mood, don’t rush. I always tell myself—every smile’s got a story, even the broken ones. My thing is: comfort first, then precision. I want the outcome to last, not just look good for a week. Not tryna claim perfection or magic solutions—just consistent, clear, hands-on care where patients feel heard. I think dentistry should *fit* the person, not push them into a box. That's kinda been my philosophy from day one. And yeah, maybe sometimes I overexplain or spend a bit too long checking alignment again but hey, if it means someone eats pain-free or finally smiles wide in pics again? Worth it. Every time.

Hello,

Your symptoms for 4 years are not normal and are unlikely to be cured by antacids or omeprazole alone.

Skipping meals in the past does not permanently cause ulcers. The most likely causes are: H. pylori infection (very common and often untreated) Chronic gastritis / acid reflux Aerophagia (air swallowing) causing loud throat gas Permanent cure is possible only if the cause is treated.

What you need to do Get tested for H. pylori (stool test or breath test). If positive ; take 14-day eradication therapy (PPI + 2 antibiotics). Confirm cure with a repeat test after treatment. Consider upper GI endoscopy because symptoms are long-standing and severe. For throat gas: eat slowly, avoid straws/gum, and practice diaphragmatic breathing.

With proper testing and treatment, this condition can be permanently resolved.

I hope this helps Thank you

I completed my medical degree in 2023, but honestly, my journey in healthcare started way before that. Since 2018, I’ve been actively involved in clinical practice—getting hands-on exposure across multiple departments like ENT, pediatrics, dermatology, ophthalmology, medicine, and emergency care. One of the most intense and defining phases of my training was working at a District Government Hospital for a full year during the COVID pandemic. It was chaotic, unpredictable, and exhausting—but it also grounded me in real-world medicine like no textbook ever could. Over time, I’ve worked in both OPD and IPD setups, handling everything from mild viral fevers to more stubborn, long-term conditions. These day-to-day experiences really built my base and taught me how to stay calm when things get hectic—and how to adjust fast when plans don’t go as expected. What I’ve learned most is that care isn't only about writing the right medicine. It’s about being fully there, listening properly, and making sure the person feels seen—not just treated. Alongside clinical work, I’ve also been exposed to preventive health, health education, and community outreach. These areas really matter to me because I believe real impact begins outside the hospital, with awareness and early intervention. My approach is always centered around clarity, empathy, and clinical logic—I like to make sure every patient knows exactly what’s going on and why we’re doing what we’re doing. I’ve always felt a pull towards general medicine and internal care, and honestly, I’m still learning every single day—each patient brings a new lesson. Medicine never really sits still, it keeps shifting, and I try to shift with it. Not just in terms of what I know, but also in how I listen and respond. For me, it’s always been about giving real care. Genuine, respectful, and the kind that actually helps a person heal—inside and out.

I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

I am a qualified medical doctor with MBBS and DNB Diploma in Family Medicine from NBEMS, and my work has always been centered on treating patients in a complete, not just symptom based way. During my DNB training I rotated through almost every core department—Internal medicine, Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Surgery, Orthopedics, ENT, Dermatology, Psychiatry, Emergency medicine. That mix gave me the skill to manage acute illness, long term disease and preventive care together, something I find very important in family practice. In psychiatry I worked closely with patients who struggled with depression, anxiety, stress related problems, insomnia or substance use. I learned not just about medication but also about simple psychotherapy tools, psycho education and how to talk openly without judgement. I still use that exp in family medicine, specially when chronic disease patients also face mental health issues. My time in General surgery included assisting in minor and major procedures, managing wounds, abscess, sutures and emergencies. While I am not a surgeon, this gave me confidence to recognize surgical cases early, provide first line care and refer fast when needed, which makes a big difference in online or OPD settings. Now I work as a consultant in General medicine and Family practice, with focus on both in-person and online consultation. I treat conditions like fever, infections, gastrointestinal complaints, respiratory illness, and also manage diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders, and lifestyle related chronic diseases. I see women for PCOS, contraception counseling, menstrual health, and children for common pediatric issues. I also dedicate time to preventive health, lifestyle counseling and diet-sleep-exercise advice, since these small changes affect long term wellness more than we often realize. My key skills include holistic diagnosis, evidence based treatment, chronic disease management, mental health support, preventive medicine and telemedicine communiation. At the center of all this is one thing—patients should feel heard, safe, and guided with care that is both professional and personal.

Hello Fahad, I understand how frustrating and embarrassing this has been for you. Long-standing ulcer symptoms for 4 years without relief from omeprazole means this needs a proper re-evaluation, not just more antacids. Here is what you should do-

1. Get these tests done- Stool H.Pylori Antigen Test, CBC, Endoscopy. Review with reports.

2. For your loud gas from the mouth, take this prescription - - Tab. Domperidone 10mg before meals × 5 days. - Syp. Simethicone 10ml after meals × 7 days.

3. Follow this- Slow eating, no talking while eating. Avoid chewing gum, carbonated drinks. Do diaphragmatic breathing exercises.

4. Diet rules- Eat small meals every 3–4 hours. Do NOT stay empty stomach for long. Avoid: Spicy food, Tea/coffee on empty stomach, Carbonated drinks, Warm, soft foods are better.

5. When to seek urgent care- Vomiting blood, Black stools, Severe weight loss, Night pain waking you from sleep.

*This can be treated and cured, but only if the real cause is identified. Repeating antacids without testing will not solve it.

Regards, Dr. Nirav Jain MBBS, DNB D.Fam.Med
