All about Stomach Aches

A stomach ache is a pain in the belly that can have many causes. It may come from eating too quickly, eating too much or feeling anxious. It can also be caused by a virus that upsets the stomach.

Most stomach aches go away with rest, sipping water and eating simple foods. Tell an adult if the pain is very strong, lasts a long time, or comes with a fever, vomiting or pain that moves to one side of the tummy.
