What is the remedy for the severe stomach pain due to stomach hernia?
Patient: I am having severe stomach pain. it could be pancreatics or my large stomach hernia. went to emergency room Saturday. The doctor said I did not have pancreatics but my primary doctor said that he did not see results in report that he received today. I feel full like I have eaten a large meal when I only had dry toast and cup of pudding. I feel very sick. should I go back to the er or spend time visiting my primary. I need relief from this pain. Doctor: Hi. Your posting additional symptoms would have helped me to give you a better idea about diagnosis. Viz: nausea / vomiting/ abdominal distention / constipation or loose motions/ fever/ fainting or collapsing / sweating/ and so on.If these symptoms are not there , it is less probably due to pancreatitis. Large stomach hernia can cause this type of pain if the opening ( neck) is small and there is entrapment of intestines. If one goes for an X-ray in standing lateral position , one can see intestine being trapped. Such a simple test. Ultrasonography and serum lipase and amylase enzymes increase in pancreatitis.Well there still can be another reasons , which can be diagnosed on a good clinical examination and your proper history.Let me know more .
