Dear Practo User.
Thanks for sending across your query.
Persistent mid-abdominal and back pain with bilateral pleural effusion may suggest referred pain from lungs or diaphragm irritation. It’s important to rule out causes like infection, pancreatitis, or pleurisy. Please get imaging (CT/ultrasound) and consult .
Next Steps
For further details you can consult with me in Dr. Monga medi clinic or consult me directly by taking a consultation on Practo.

Pl. Share details of your symptoms, duration, frequency, severity, relation to meals, nature of the pain, whether colicky cramp like or burning? Then I can definitely help you.

Get abdominal ultrasound done. For pain, take tab meftal spas one every 8 hours for 3 days.

Thanks for explaining your symptoms. Since you mentioned middle stomach pain (front and back, same area), lasting 2 months, and you have bilateral minimal pleural effusion, this needs a careful look.
Next Steps
Please confirm:
Do you have cough, weight loss, or fever?
Does pain increase with deep breath or eating?
Are you on any medications?
Consider doing:
Chest X-ray or ultrasound abdomen
Blood tests: CBC, ESR, CRP, amylase/lipase, LFT
Review with a chest physician or gastroenterologist
Health Tips
Track Your Pain
Keep a diary: note location, duration, triggers (like eating, breathing, posture).
Mark on a body diagram where the pain is exactly felt.
Dietary Care
Avoid spicy, oily, or acidic foods (they worsen gastritis).
Eat small frequent meals — avoid long gaps between meals.
Drink warm water; avoid cold drinks or aerated beverages.
Breathing Exercises
Gentle deep breathing exercises can help lung expansion and reduce pleural-related pain.
Do this 5–10 mins daily unless pain worsens.
Posture Awareness
Avoid slouching; keep spine straight while sitting.
Use a pillow to support your back while sleeping or sitting.
Avoid Self-Medication
Don't take NSAIDs or painkillers like ibuprofen frequently — they can irritate the stomach lining.

Dear patient,Thank you for sharing your symptoms. The pain in the middle of your stomach (front and back) for almost two months, along with minimal pleural effusion and bluish discoloration, needs detailed evaluation. This could potentially be related to gastrointestinal issues (e.g., pancreatitis or intestinal swelling) or a respiratory condition, but a proper diagnosis is essential.I recommend a physical examination, imaging studies (e.g., ultrasound or CT scan), and blood tests. Please consult a gastroenterologist or pulmonologist for specialized care and avoid self-medication. Feel free to connect for further guidance.Best regards,
Dr. Aditya
