How long does it usually take to heal from a cold stomach

A cold stomach usually recovers in about 2-3 days after being treated with warmth as well as medication. Cold stomach often results in abdominal pain and distension, nausea and vomiting, which may be caused by stomach cramps due to cold stimulation. In general, after drinking warm water, using hot water bags to warm the abdomen to keep the stomach warm, or giving antispasmodic and pain-relieving drugs, the stomach can be relieved in a few hours at the earliest, and generally recovers completely in about 2-3 days. If the symptoms continue to be unrelieved after getting cold, and serious manifestations such as vomiting blood, diarrhea, fever and deficiency appear, you should promptly go to the gastroenterology department of the hospital to exclude the possibility of other serious acute abdominal diseases. If the stomach often suffers from discomfort after a cold, gastroscopy is recommended to exclude organic gastrointestinal lesions. During the period of stomach cold, you must pay attention to keep warm, eat a mild and easily digestible diet, do not eat cold, spicy and stimulating food, pay attention to dietary hygiene and cleanliness, take proper rest and avoid strenuous activities.
