Overview
Abdominal pain is a common medical complaint that can range from a mild ache to severe, disabling pain. It can occur on its own or be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, bloating, diarrhea, or constipation. Abdominal pain is usually felt between the chest and the groin, and can have many different causes. These can range from digestive issues such as indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, and food poisoning, to more serious conditions such as organ damage, appendicitis, or heart disease. It is important to talk to a doctor if you experience abdominal pain, as early diagnosis and treatment may help improve the outcome.
