    Stomach pain and discomfort may be caused by poor eating habits, or it may be caused by acute gastritis and peptic ulcer. You need to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination to find out the specific cause, and then adopt appropriate treatment.

    1. Bad eating habits

    If you don't pay attention to your diet in your daily life and like to eat foods that are too cold, it may cause certain irritation and damage to the stomach, resulting in stomach cramps and contractions accompanied by stomach pain.

    2. Acute gastritis

    Acute gastritis is the primary cause of stomach pain. Acute gastritis will cause obvious spasm and contraction of the gastric mucosa, resulting in severe pain in the stomach.

    3. Peptic ulcer

    Peptic ulcer is a relatively common disease in internal medicine. It may be caused by excessive gastric acid secretion or a weakening of the gastric mucosa's own protective barrier. It may also be caused by taking some drugs that irritate the gastric mucosa. It is usually accompanied by symptoms of stomach pain and indigestion.

    If the stomach pain is severe, you need to use drugs that inhibit gastric acid secretion for treatment as soon as possible under the guidance of a doctor. The more commonly used drugs are omeprazole. During the course of taking the medicine, measures should also be taken to protect the stomach from cold and keep it warm, so as not to let the stomach catch a cold.
