If you have normal bowel movements, does that mean your stomach is fine?

However, normal stool does not mean that there is no big problem in the stomach, such as superficial gastritis with slight gastric mucous membrane damage, often there is no abnormality in the stool; small polyps in the stomach, gastroesophageal reflux and other diseases may be manifested as normal stool. If you have any discomfort or abnormal stools, you should go to the hospital for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
