What is Stomach Pain?
Definition: Stomach pain, or abdominal pain, refers to any discomfort or pain felt in the area between the chest and pelvis. It can vary in intensity and location and may be acute or chronic.
Types: Stomach pain can manifest as cramping, sharp, dull, or bloating sensations, and may be localized to specific areas or more generalized.
Common Causes of Stomach Pain
Digestive Disorders: Conditions such as gastritis, peptic ulcers, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) can cause abdominal pain and discomfort.
Infections: Bacterial or viral infections, including gastroenteritis or food poisoning, often result in stomach pain along with other symptoms like nausea and diarrhea.
Inflammatory Conditions: Inflammatory conditions like appendicitis, pancreatitis, or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can cause significant abdominal pain and require prompt medical attention.
Diagnostic Procedures
Physical Examination: Our healthcare providers perform a comprehensive physical exam to assess the nature and location of your pain and identify any potential underlying issues.
Blood Tests: Blood tests are used to check for signs of infection, inflammation, or other abnormalities that may be contributing to your stomach pain.
Imaging Studies: Techniques such as ultrasound, CT scans, or endoscopy provide detailed images of the abdominal organs to diagnose conditions such as gallstones, tumors, or internal inflammation.
Treatment Options
Medication: Depending on the diagnosis, medications may include antacids, antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, or medications specifically targeting the underlying condition.
Lifestyle and Dietary Changes: Adjustments to your diet and lifestyle, such as avoiding trigger foods, eating smaller meals, and managing stress, can help alleviate symptoms and promote digestive health.
Surgical Intervention: For conditions requiring surgical treatment, such as appendicitis or certain types of ulcers, we provide expert care and surgical options tailored to your needs.
Prevention and Management
Healthy Eating: Maintain a balanced diet, stay hydrated, and avoid excessive consumption of spicy or fatty foods that can irritate the stomach.
