I've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

I'm dealing with loose motion and I have Norflox TZ and Norflox 400 at home. I'm not sure which one to take and I don't really know the difference between the two. Could you help me out, or maybe suggest something else if these aren't the best options?

I've been dealing with some stomach and upper abdominal pain for a couple of days now, and there's been a lot of bloating and gas too. I'm starting to worry a bit. Any idea what might be going on?

If you are not having any vomitting or loose motion, it is likely just a case of gastritis or bloating. You can take Pantoprazole 40mg before food for a couple of days, while restricting yourself to a reduced spice diet. You can also consider taking Simethicone for relief from bloating. Avoid lying down immediately after meals and try to eat in smaller quantities with increased frequency, instead of large meals with longer gaps. Keeping yourself physically active for at least 150 minutes per week has great benefits with regards to gut health and peristalsis.

I'm a bit concerned after getting my lab results, and I was hoping you could help me understand them better. My SGPT level came back at 86 and SGOT is at 64. What could these numbers mean for my liver health? Are they dangerously high or just a little elevated? Should I be doing something specific or get more tests done to check it out?
