What is Abdominal pain
Abdominal pain, or stomach pain, is discomfort felt between the chest and groin.
It can be mild or severe and may stem from digestive problems (indigestion, gas), inflammation (appendicitis, pancreatitis), infections (gastroenteritis, UTIs), obstructions (intestinal blockages, kidney stones), or chronic conditions (IBS, Crohn's disease). Diagnosis involves medical history, physical examination, and sometimes tests, with treatment varying based on the cause, ranging from home remedies to medical or surgical interventions.
