When my stomach is empty, I feel burning sensation on the right side of my abdomen. Why?
This could be a case of referred pain where pain signals in one area are referred to other. Empty stomach means acid secretions are triggering the walls of the stomach leading to pain. But that pain could get referred to the right side of the abdomen instead of the normal left side pain. More tests like Ultra sonography can be done to cancel out any liver complications. If problem persists or gets worse, do contact our team and we can guide you on what to do next.
Right-sided referred pain from stomach acid is less common but clinically recognised. Ruling out gallbladder involvement through an ultrasound gives clarity on which direction the treatment needs to go.
