What Causes Prickly Sensation In Stomach And Navel Area?
I have a prickly sensation almost like pins and needles in my stomach. sometimes by my navel and sometimes on the sides of my stomach. Had a CT scan two months ago when I first noticed this sensation. CT scan was normal. Now im noticing sensation more frequently. Didn t want to get another CT scan. I heard having the dye injected into your body at least twice within a year is not good. Help please

Hi,
The prickly sensation you have could be from overstretching of gastrointestinal tract due to over eating and digestive deficiency. Try with balanced diet with sufficient fibers and water intake. Regular exercises ..specially abdominal muscles would help. Digestive enzymes over the counter would help.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
