Hello Doctor,
I have been experiencing persistent stomach pain and constant nausea, along with a general feeling of discomfort. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be concerned? How can I address or alleviate these issues?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr.Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
1. Gastritis or Peptic Ulcers: Inflammation of the stomach lining or ulcers could cause stomach pain and nausea. Treatment may involve medications to reduce stomach acid.
2. Gastroenteritis: Viral or bacterial infections of the digestive tract can lead to stomach pain, nausea, and diarrhea. Rest and hydration are crucial, and severe cases may require medical attention.
3. Food Sensitivities or Allergies: Certain foods or ingredients may trigger stomach discomfort and nausea. Keeping a food diary may help identify potential culprits.
4. GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease): Persistent acid reflux can cause stomach pain and nausea. Lifestyle changes, medications, or other interventions may be recommended.
5. Appendicitis: If you experience severe abdominal pain, especially on the right side, along with nausea, it could be a sign of appendicitis, requiring immediate medical attention.
6. Stress and Anxiety: Emotional factors can contribute to stomach issues. Managing stress through relaxation techniques or therapy may help.
