Abdominal Pain
People experience mild or severe abdominal pain (stomachache, bellyache) occasionally. The pain could be acute (short-lived) or chronic if it occurs for a few weeks or several months. It is critical to see a doctor if the abdominal pain is severe. If the individual cannot move without feeling pain, it is difficult to sit still or find a position to ease the pain; it is time to seek medical attention.
Abdominal pain is discomfort a person feels in the region between the ribs and the pelvis. While the general description is stomach pain, the pain in the belly region could be due to the organs of the digestive system. However, the pain could be from the abdominal muscles, the skin covering the area, or the abdominal wall. It could also come from the back, pelvis, or chest.
The pain could be due to gastrointestinal problems. Some people are exposed to inorganic arsenic from the food and water they consume. After a few days, a healthy person flushes the arsenic they ingested through the urine. But in some cases, the toxin accumulates in the body; thus, the level increases, exhibiting symptoms like abdominal pain.
