I've been having this weird burning feeling in my stomach a couple of hours after eating, right around where it would be digesting, and there's also this mild pain just above my belly button. I'm starting to worry a bit, could it be something like an ulcer?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The stomach burning and mild pain near the belly button area, occurring 2-3 hours after eating, could be indicative of various conditions, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or duodenal ulcers, but it's also possible that it's related to digestion issues, food intolerance, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), so it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist for a proper evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment plan.

View allI usually avoid eating fruits because I'm not a fan, but the other day my friend's mom insisted that I try some papaya. Now, I'm dealing with a pretty bad stomachache and I feel bloated. Do you think the stomach pain is from eating the papaya? How can I get some relief and feel better soon?
Actually pappaya is good for health but some are irratable to pappaya , if you get same symptoms next its better to avoid rather than taking medicines

I've been having some issues with my digestion lately. My farts and motions have a strong, bad smell no matter what I eat. Plus, I feel more comfortable sleeping on my right side because when I try to sleep on my left, I get this slight discomfort below my stomach. What could be causing this?

I've been having this weird pulling sensation in my lower right abdomen and a dull ache just below my right breast, but it doesn't happen all the time. I haven't noticed any problems with my diet or bowel movements. About a month ago, I took some medicine for mild gastritis after talking to my doctor. Should I be concerned about these sensations, or could they be related to the gastritis or something else?
The pulling sensation in the lower right abdomen could be related to muscle strain or even issues with the appendix. The dull ache below the right breast could be due to musculoskeletal pain or even related to gastritis. Considering your history of mild gastritis, it would be advisable to continue with medications that help with gastritis such as Omeprazole (20mg) once daily before breakfast
