What Could Have Led To Painful Stomach And Severe Vomiting?

I have felt incredibly sick for two days. I have extreme pain in my stomach. It never goes away but sometimes dulls for about a hour. And this morning was the worst I felt like death and I vomited a thick vomit with black chunks. What's happening to me?

Hello!

Thank you for the query.

If this is upper middle abdominal pain, most likely you are facing with peptic ulcer. It is quite characteristic for this condition to give dull pain which does not go away even with painkillers. Some food intake can sometimes help with the pain (depending of its location). Black chunks can indicate bleeding from the ulcer.

I suggest you to do not wait any longer with it and visit a doctor. Gastroscopy should be done if bleeding seems possible.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
