Patient's question:
A 22-year-old male has been experiencing stomach pain for the past 1.2 months, specifically in the lower abdomen below the navel. What could be the reason for this? After taking Omeprazole for 5 days, the pain improved, but it has started to return again in recent days when he hasn't taken the medication. What should be done?Doctor's answer:
Recurring episodes of upper abdominal and lower abdominal pain may be caused by gastritis, colitis, or urinary tract stones. It is recommended to visit a hospital where a doctor can diagnose the condition based on the symptoms. You can also have an abdominal ultrasound examination to determine if there are any abnormalities. For patients with severe stomach pain, it is advised to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements or over-the-counter medications, as this may worsen the condition. The above advice is for reference only. We hope this information can help you. Thank you.
