Follow on Google News | ![]() Abdominal pain after eating: Insights from Dr. Indraneel SahaDr. Indraneel Saha, a highly regarded abdominal pain doctor, says, "Recurring abdominal pain post-meal is usually a sign of an underlying digestive issue. The body's response to food is not something that could cause ingestion. But if patients experience severe pain soon after eating which gradually worsens over time, it is definitely an indication of serious conditions." One of the leading factors behind post-meal stomach discomfort is Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), he stated. It is a condition that involves constant throwing up of the stomach's acidic content into the esophagus, causing heartburn and chest pain. Some of the other serious complications that patients might be unknowingly suffering from are peptic ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastritis, food allergies, celiac disease and even gallstones. These medical conditions often get aggravated by foods that are spicy and acidic in nature, thereby giving rise to sharp pain. Having treated so many patients with abdominal problems, Dr. Saha urges patients to also look for other accompanying symptoms such as changes in bowel movements, blood in the stool, fever, or unexplained weight loss, as these are the warning signs of more fatal complications such as Crohn's disease and stomach cancer. "If you are someone who is constantly experiencing abdominal discomfort that is not going away even after having anti-reflux medicines, it is recommended to seek medical consultation to know the root cause of the problem and get proper treatment on time," he added. He also advised patients to make necessary lifestyle changes, such as dietary adjustments, such as eating smaller and more frequent meals, managing stress and engaging in exercise to see if it's making any improvements in the symptoms. We all face abdominal pain at some point in our lives. However, the persistent discomfort must not be ignored but rather addressed to have better digestive health.
