A member asked:

I am feeling tightness not pain in the upper middle abdomen.. how to prevent it??

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Any other symptoms?: Other than tightness in the upper mid abdomen, any other symptoms like heart burn, nausea/vomiting etc present? If so it could be gastritis. Avoid eating spicy foods, cut down fried foods . Try initially OTC antacids. If still there , consult your PCP.
