SEVERE PAIN! Please help me to figure out what is wrong
by millymil, May 28, 2009 06:01PM
Hi. My name is malika. I am 15 years old I will be 16 in two weeks exactly. I have a 7 month old baby girl. Since i gave birth to my daughter I've had multiple problems with my body. The last two weeks I have had piercing sharp pains though out my chest and back. At certain times the sharp pains will spread through out my whole entire chest, ribs and back preventing me from breathing and even moving. The more I breathe in, the more it hurts. I also feel nauseous all the time. I am really concerned. I can't participate in any sports or anything with out the pain coming. I also have had severe pain in the upper/middle part of my abdomen. What could this be?

Thanks for writing to the forum!
In all probability you have severe acidity and GERD.
Omeprazole is a good drug to combat this. Along with it you can try over the counter antacids. Avoid heavy meals. Avoid too much of caffeine, tea, fried food and drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic fuzzy ones. Avoid heavy exercises within 4 hours of a heavy meal. Raise the head end of the bed by pillows to 30 degrees. Go to bed at least 2 hours after food.
Also take a calcium and iron supplement, however do not take them together.
Hope these tips help. If symptoms persist consult your PCP. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
