Stomach pain is common, but sometimes it's your body telling you something more serious is going on.
If your pain keeps coming back or starts to interfere with eating, sleeping or daily life, it’s time to talk to your doctor. Call 911 or visit the ER if stomach pain is severe, prolonged or accompanied by:
- Bleeding
- Fever, nausea, vomiting, or chills
- Pain that spreads across your abdomen
- Severe bloating, especially if you can’t pass gas or stool
- Inability to urinate or significant pain or blood with urination
