[|Human|] I have had steady pain in the middle of my abdomen between belly button and rib cage, for the past 5 days. Doesnt seem to be affected by food. Occassionally gets severe for a minute or two then returns to dull pain. A little burping but no real heartburn. Tender to push on area and somewhat hard. No fever. Any ideas?
[|AI|]  Hi there! Thanks for posing your question On Chat Doctor! What you seem to be suffering from is mostly Reflux disease, also called HERD. This generally happens because of a number of reasons. Irregular dietary habits, spicy diet, too much alcohol are just a few of them. Although the pain doesn't seem to be affected by food, thereby ruling our ulcer; if left untreated, it could result in a gastric ulcer, later on.’M treatment would be taken one tablet of Pantoprazole 20 mg, once a day before food, for 15 days. Hope this helps!
