What Causes Constant Stomach Pain And Headache?

Hi there. I'm a 22 year old female. I've been feeling sick to my stomach for about three days in a row now... not like it comes and go just a constant stomach ache, been having headaches and starting to get congested, and also have been feeling tired a lot. I've never had the flu before so I don't know if that's what it is, some kind of stomach flu, but any ideas would help.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi! Good evening.I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Many times a flu not infrequently could give rise to pain and discomfort in the stomach which would go away once the flu was treated. However, if it persists, then I would advise you for an ultrasound of the abdomen along with a clinical assessment by a general surgeon in your area to rule out any intra abdominal pathology. In case you are sexually active, you might hage to go for a serum HCG to rule out a pregnancy. Till then you could go for an anti spasmodic drug along with a proton pump inhibitor drug for a symptomatic relief.


I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
