I'm sorry to hear about the discomfort you're experiencing. Pain on the left side of the stomach and chest that worsens when the stomach is empty could be related to several conditions, such as gastritis, peptic ulcers, or acid reflux. These conditions often cause pain due to stomach acid irritating the lining of the stomach or esophagus, especially when there is no food to buffer the acid.
For relief, you might consider:
There is a medication called Sucral Tablet, which is often prescribed to help protect the stomach lining and relieve symptoms related to acid-related stomach issues. However, this should only be taken under the guidance of a doctor.
Since your symptoms have persisted for several weeks, it is important to consult a gastroenterologist (a specialist in digestive system disorders) for a thorough evaluation. They can perform appropriate tests, confirm the diagnosis, and recommend the best treatment plan tailored to your condition.
If you experience severe chest pain, difficulty breathing, or other alarming symptoms, seek emergency medical care immediately.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.I understand you've been having pain in your stomach and chest. To help me understand better, could you please tell me your age and gender?
