Hi Thanks for asking Chat Doctor. Your husband seems to be suffering from hunger pain. And more he avoids food more he will be suffering. It is advised he should take small frequent meals with high fiber content like fruits and vegetables and lots of oral fluids. For time being he should avoid spicy food, tea, coffee, and alcoholic Chat Doctor. He should take tab pantoprazole 40 mg twice daily empty stomach that is before meals for about a week, add digestive enzyme supplement, he should take mild laxative if constipated. Even if pain continues after that he should see a doctor who may want investigations like some blood tests like Complete blood count, ESR, Liver function test or even gastrostomy if required.
