Hi.... Welcome to Chat Doctor. As per your complaint you have problem of abdominal pain that may be because of abdominal gas problem or indigestion or other reasons. Mention an intensity and duration of pain with aggravating factor. Pennies tabulate can use in indigestion problem. Peppermint tea helpful for gas relief and digestion. Heavy meal and late night meal lead to abdominal blowing problem and other abdominal problems. Try to regulate your meal and avoid heavy meal at night Avoid tea, coffee, spicy food, citrus foods and fatty food. Avoid immediate lying down after meal. Elevate your head during sleeping time. Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis. I hope my guidance helpful to you. Take care. Thank you.
