Ive been experiencing this pain that gets worse after eating, and its been going on for three years now. I had an abdominal ultrasound, but nothing unusual came up. Some days I dont feel any pain at all. Over the past three years, I've lost about 12 kg, but I've also started walking more, so maybe that's why. Im now 45 kg and I'm 5 feet 3 inches tall. Should I be worried about this weight loss, or does it seem like it's just from being more active? Any idea what could be causing the pain?

You may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis, which is inflammation of the stomach lining. This can cause pain that worsens after eating. Since nothing was found on the abdominal ultrasound, other possible causes could be considered such as acid reflux or peptic ulcer disease. Some common medicines available for gastritis include Pantocid, Omez, and Rabicip. These medications help reduce stomach acid production and provide relief from symptoms. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
