hi i got a constant lump feeling under my brest bone it feels like trapped air but it burns and i bring the wind up and it still there im starting to feel unwell too does anyone know wat it could be?
Have you tried eating gluten free?
Thank you so very much. I have had a scan on my liver, pancreas,kidneys (Found out i contracted hep c through an accident in medical assisting school) thank God cleared the virus. had a blood panel done and my alt ast were fine. But i will make an appointment for an upper GI. to see what is the deal with the belching. During the scan they found stones in my gall bladder so i thought that was it. Thanks for your prompt response and i will follow up
I would investigate problems with the upper GI tract. This can include GERD, an ulcer, or inflammation of the upper digestive tract (gastritis or esophagitis).
A reasonable approach would be an upper GI series or upper endoscopy.
Atypically, gallbladder and liver disease can be the culprit - and an abdominal ultrasound can be done to evaluate for this.
If the tests come back negative, irritable bowel disease can be responsible. Increasing the fiber in the diet as well as antispasmodic agents can help in this instance.
You can discuss these options with your personal physician.
Followup with your personal physician is essential.
