Stomach pain is a major problem affecting many people in our world today. Stomach pain is an ailment that requires special attention and is divided into different types. It is advisable to visit a doctor promptly to avoid serious complications.
1. PEPTIC ULCER DISEASE (Ulcer).
If the ulcer is near the middle of the stomach (gastric or duodenal ulcer), the pain appears in the upper abdomen or middle of the stomach. The pain can occur before or after eating. Sometimes it may also be accompanied by vomiting or nausea.
2. GASTRITIS
This occurs when stomach "acid" begins to erode the stomach lining. One feels a burning pain or a sensation like a fire is burning in the upper abdomen. Excessive consumption of "coffee," "painkiller" medications (NSAIDs), or "stress" can worsen the problem.
3. INDIGESTION (Dyspepsia)
This happens when food is not digested properly.
One may feel bloating, heaviness, and stomach pain after eating.
4. GALLBLADDER PROBLEMS (stones or inflammation)
If the pain occurs in the upper abdomen, on the right side, after eating fatty foods, it could be a gallstone. The pain can be intermittent and spread to the back or shoulder (Abdominal muscle strain). Sometimes the pain is not from the intestines, but from the external muscles.
