INDIGESTION PROBLEMS
Indigestion is a common problem – most of us suffer from occasional bouts of indigestion at some point or another and it is usually not a cause for concern. However, if it is a regular or persistent problem, then it might be a sign of a more serious underlying health condition and it is essential you have it checked by a specialist.
Indigestion, known medically as dyspepsia, typically presents as a burning pain in your upper abdomen or higher. However, it can also cause nausea, vomiting, bloating, belching, heartburn and feeling full quickly whenever you eat.
It is usually caused by inflammation in your stomach and might be the result of ulcers, hiatus hernias, or as a side effect of certain medications.
