Is there anything that would help my pain?
36-year-old woman
I have had a stomach ache for about a week. At the level of my stomach, under my ribs. Pain that goes all the way across my stomach, not just on one side. Usually I am fine at the beginning of the day and I start to have pain in the late afternoon.

Hello ma'am, is this perhaps related to meals, an activity or something else?

Increased pain sometimes when I eat but not automatically, I can also be in pain without having eaten recently.

Thanks for the information!
In order to properly address this problem, I believe that we should try to find a possible cause.
What I suggest for the next 4 to 6 weeks is to keep a diary where you will write down everything you consume as well as the quantities, but also the activities you undertake, and your state of mind (fatigue, stress, etc.). In the second column you could write down the occurrence and extent of the symptoms. We could then identify some possible causes. This may take several weeks so I suggest being diligent.
If no cause can be suggested, I suggest consulting a physician to get a thorough evaluation of the situation.
I hope I have been helpful and remain available if you have any further questions!
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
