Stomach Pain After Eating

Here are the main causes of stomach pain after eating that may require medical attention.

Ulcers - If you have an ulcer, any food you eat may irritate it, causing stomach pains after you've eaten. You can get ulcers in the lining of stomach itself, or you can get them in the upper part of the intestine known as the duodenum.

Stomach cancer - Unfortunately, stomach pains after eating may indicate that there's a tumor in your stomach. Incidence of stomach cancer has been dropping for decades in the United States, but it's still a possibility.

Gastroenteritis or "stomach flu" - Vomiting and stomach discomfort are common when you have a stomach virus. Vomiting is a natural way of getting rid of the bacteria in your stomach. Of course it is not uncommon to experience some abdominal discomfort and nausea at the same time, especially after eating.

How to Get Rid of a Headache

My Tips

• Having pre-made meals in the freezer can be a huge relief if you have regular tension headaches. This removes a source of stress if you're expected to make dinner, as all you need to do is heat up the meal while you're resting. This alone can be enough to draw off an evening headache after a day's work, as you can take the time to rest peacefully instead of trying to prepare a meal.
• Don't be afraid to withdraw from other people to rest. Remaining around people and trying to stay perky when you've got a headache can worsen it. You'll be better company after some rest.
• Rub tiger balm on your temples. The menthol might be able to distract your senses and help alleviate the pain.
• If it's a sinus headache, try eating a spoonful of honey made in your local area every day. While it won't help immediately, it might help to build up your immunity from local pollens.
• Avoid elevating your head when resting for a headache – keep it as level with your body as possible.
