What’s with the stomach pains?

The causes of stomach pain include cold, gastritis and peptic ulcer.
1. Cold: Consumption of too cold food such as iced cold drinks, iced porridge, etc., resulting in stomach cramps, thus causing pain, which can be relieved by applying hot compresses.
2. Gastritis: Common causes include poor diet, infectious factors (such as eating unclean food, infection with Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, etc.), mental stress, drug abuse, etc., resulting in gastric mucosal congestion, edema, erosion, which causes paroxysmal epigastric distension, nausea and vomiting.
3. Peptic ulcer: commonly caused by Helicobacter pylori infection, mainly manifested as rhythmic pain in the epigastric region, the course of the disease is generally longer, the pain is mostly dull pain, burning pain or hunger pain.
In addition to the above causes, duodenitis also presents with rhythmic epigastric pain, fasting stomach pain, food or acid-producing drugs can relieve. If the patient’s symptoms are severe, or if the symptoms persist and do not improve, he should go to the hospital in time to identify the cause of the disease and give targeted treatment.
