i have quite a no of headaches, however
recently i had burning ribs situated at
the front lower part of my rib cage,
headache,low grade fever, very bloated
stomach but no diarrhoea. Could't eat
anything as I felt too full, yet I hadn't
eaten that much, burping a little also.
Please advise what you think could be the
matter.
Most Likely, you are experiencing a
gastric disorder: gastritis, duodenitis,
peptic ulcer, GERD, hiatus hernia, etc. An
endoscopy (gastroscopy) can identify the
real cause of the stomach symptoms you
describe. An abdominal ultrasound, blood
analyses (standard plus liver and renal
profile), and Helicobacter pillory
serology are also recommended in cases of
undiagnosed stomach trouble.
