The location of the stomach usually varies considerably depending on body size, position, and the degree of gastric filling. It is usually located mainly in the left upper abdomen. Whether it is a stomachache or not is mainly determined by the location of the pain, its nature, and whether or not it is eating.
Usually the stomach is located mostly in the left upper abdomen and a small portion in the epigastric region when it is not full. The cardia and pylorus of the stomach are generally in a fixed position, with the cardia located to the left of the 11th thoracic vertebra and the pylorus approximately to the right of the 1st lumbar vertebra. The lowest point of the greater curvature of the stomach is generally at the level of the umbilicus.
The site of gastroparesis generally corresponds to its anatomical location, usually below the xiphoid process and between the right and left costal arches, either to the left or to the right, and sometimes up to the umbilicus. The nature of stomach pain is diverse, and can be persistent or paroxysmal pain, colic, vague pain, postprandial pain and so on.
To determine whether stomach pain is mainly from the site of pain, nature, whether to eat and other aspects of the examination, it is recommended to go to the hospital under the diagnosis and treatment of a physician to clarify.
