Seven Common Abdomnal Stomach Problems Just about everyone has had Abdominal stomach troubles at one time or another. Fortunately,
you can treat many symptoms yourself. Seven common stomach problems, their causes and what to do for them follow.
1. Heartburn and Indigestion
2. Vomiting
3. Diarrhea
4. Stomach Pain
5. Constipation
6. Gas
1. Heartburn and Indigestion–Description: Heartburn (dyspepsia) results from stomach acids backing up into the esophagus (which connects
the mouth to the stomach). Indigestion is that hard-to-describe upset feeling in your stomach. Causes: Alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, chocolate,
citrus, tomato, peppermint, fried and fatty foods, overeating, stress, some medications and being overweight Self-Care: Avoid or moderate your
indulgence of the above items and eat smaller meals more frequently. For heartburn, do not lie down for four hours after eating and raise the head
of your bed four to six inches. Try an over-the-counter neutralizing antacid (e.g., generic Maalox or Mylanta), or an acid reducer (e.g., Pepcid,
Tagamet or Zantac). When to Seek Medical Advice: If it doesn’t respond to self-help efforts, persists for more than two weeks or if you have
significant pain or weight loss, seek medical help from your health care provider.
2. Vomiting–Causes: Viruses, bacteria, food poisoning, alcohol, stress and/or pregnancy Self-Care: Let your stomach rest. Refrain from eating
or drinking until you feel better (two to four hours). Then start with tiny sips of clear fluids that are not carbonated (e.g., flat ginger ale, 7-Up or
Gatorade) for another few hours. Rest until you feel better. Watch for the following: Dehydration (excessive loss of water from the body).
Symptoms can include decreased urine, dry mouth, dizziness while standing and/or fatigue. Seek Medical Advice: If vomiting doesn’t stop
within six to eight hours, you have fever over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, severe headache or abdominal pain, seek medical help from your health
care provider. http://www.emfnews.org/qlinks.html
3. Diarrhea–Definition: Frequent and watery bowel movements Causes: Viruses, bacteria, food poisoning, stress and/or specific food
sensitivities Self-Care: Drink clear fluids and limit your foods to BRAT (Bananas, Rice, Applesauce and Toast). Avoid over-the-counter
medications and let the illness run its course. If symptoms persist, try Imodium AD. Note: If you’re traveling, bring a more specific treatment
(such as a prescription antibiotic) with you. Watch for the following: Dehydration, fever over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, severe pain (not just
cramps) and/or bloody stools Seek Medical Advice: If any of the above conditions are present, or the diarrhea hasn’t stopped within three days,
seek medical attention from your health care provider.
4. Stomach Pain–Definition: Sharp or cramping pain anywhere in the upper or lower abdomen Causes: Gas, constipation, menstrual cycle,
stress, medications (e.g., erythromycin), peptic ulcer and/ or other potentially serious conditions Self-Care: Rest, antacid and heat Watch for
the following: Fever or worsening pain Seek Medical Advice: For pain that is severe or persistent, seek medical help from your health care
provider.
5. Constipation–Definition: Excessively hard and infrequent stools Causes: Insufficient water and fiber (whole wheat, bran, vegetables,
prunes), improper diet (e.g., too much rice, cheese), lack of exercise, occasionally medications (e.g., prescription pain and cough medicine) Self-
Care: Increase fluids and fiber Watch for the following: Severe pain or rectal bleeding Seek Medical Advice: If constipation persists despite
self-care, seek medical help from your health care provider. 6. Gas–Causes: Specific foods (e.g., beans, cabbage, broccoli), too much fiber,
carbonated beverages and/or chewing gum Self-Care: Avoid the above items. Try products containing simethicone (e.g., Mylicon, Gas-X).
Seek Medical Advice: If gas persists, seek medical attention from your health care provider.
