I've been dealing with abdominal pain for a month now, and I'm really starting to get worried. It's been persistent, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Should I be concerned, or is there something specific you think I should get checked out?

View allI've been having upper abdominal pain, trouble breathing and swallowing, and a sore throat for a while. Two years ago, I had a laparoscopy for appendicitis. Recently saw a gastroenterologist who mentioned lax cardia grade A reflux esophagitis but didn't explain much. What does this condition mean and how can I manage it?
It means your stomach acid is flowing back up; treat with lifestyle changes, PPIs, and avoiding late meals.

What does it mean if my liver size is normal but there's a mildly increased parenchymal echotexture? Should I be worried, and are there any steps I should take or treatments I should consider?
It's essential to address the underlying cause of your stomach bloating and backache. Consider the following steps: Consult a gastroenterologist to rule out conditions like IBS, SIBO, or gastroparesis. Undergo tests like endoscopy, colonoscopy, or breath tests to identify the underlying cause. Avoid trigger foods, follow a low-FODMAP diet, and consider probiotics to alleviate symptoms. Maintain good posture, exercise regularly, and consider physical therapy to address backache.

I've been having this issue for the last 45 days with these excessive and weird burps, and there's a small pain just below my ribs. I've been taking rabcer20 morning and night for the past couple of days before eating, and it provides some relief, but these burps are still happening. On the first day, I even threw up at night shortly after eating. Any idea what's going on? It also feels like there's a little gas bubble just below my ribs, and I can't sit comfortably, especially after meals or even just drinking water. There's also a lot of bloating, and my stomach feels really full and heavy right after eating or drinking. Could it be anything related to my appendicitis surgery that I had when I was 16? I'm 28 years old and male. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
You may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis or acid reflux. I recommend you try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (brand name Gas-X) after meals to help relieve gas bloating. It's important to avoid spicy and acidic foods, as well as eating large meals close to bedtime. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
