Hi,My stomach over the past 3 days has been very sore as in i feel like there is a huge "air bubble" in there, just below my rib cage. it is very painful, i find it extremley hard to sleep due to the discomfort, and throughout the day i just cant seem to get rid of the feeling of the "air bubble". i have never had anything like this before nor have a changed my diet or done anything out of the ordaniary.I went to the doctor and he has given me Buscopan and salpraz. So far i have taken 2 tablets of buscopan and i have been told to take 2 tablets 4 times a day which i will and 1 salpraz tablet after my last meal as thats when the pain is at its worse, when i go to sleep, but i wanted to know if any of this will actually help or was there anything else i can do to stop this anoying painful "air bubble".Jessica cook

Hello! Thank you for the query.These medicines (especially Tuscan) are only to ease the symptoms. So you may feel a relief, but only temporarily. Upper middle abdominal pain, discomfort are most likely caused by stomach issues including stomach inflammation, peptic ulcer, Helicobacter Pylori infection. The pain is dull, usually appears after a meal. Nausea and vomiting can be present. If the pain is more on the left abdomen, and radiates to the back, gallstones can be the reason. I suggest you to find out the reason first, then choose correct treatment. Otherwise, medicines can delay the diagnosis. You should have abdominal ultrasound and gastrostomy done. Stomach cancer should be always ruled out with such symptoms (gastrostomy will do it). In a meanwhile please avoid fatty foods, spicy foods, fried foods, coffee. Hope this will help. Regards.
