Conditions > Stomach Pain
Abdominal pain has a large number of causes and should be investigated. It can be acute or chronic and can be caused by stomach, appendix, gallbladder, spleen, bowel, liver or gynaecological issues.
Occasionally, abdominal pain can be felt in the abdomen but is referred from organs close to the abdomen such as the lower lungs, kidneys or gynaecological structures. It is therefore important to see a doctor for an examination and further investigation to understand the cause.
Causes of abdominal and stomach pain:
• Inflammation such as appendicitis, diverticulitis and colitis
• Stretching of an organ due to obstruction or blockage or swelling
• Loss of supply of blood to an organ
• Spasm of the intestinal muscles
• Bacterial infections
• Yeast infections
• Viral infections
• Visceral hypersensitivity
• Sensitivity, allergy or intolerance to certain foods
• Gynaecological problems, fibroids, polyps and so on
