Hello,
With the question “What is the sign of abdominal pain above the navel? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Abdominal pain above the navel is also known as epigastric pain. Symptoms like the one you described above suggest you have an upset stomach. You need to see a gastroenterologist for advice and may need a gastroscopy to examine you.
If you still have questions about abdominal pain above the navel, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
