Indigestion is a generic term that encompasses many different issues of the gastroesophageal tract. It includes heartburn, but also irritated or inflamed stomach maladies.
Generally happening after or while you are eating, it can feel like bloating or too much acid in the stomach, but can indicate other issues.
If you need treatment for stomach ulcers, GERD, or acid reflux in Rockwall, schedule an appointment to learn natural ways to treat indigestion. Call (469) 769-1009.

Symptoms can include one or more of the following:

  • discomfort or fullness in the upper part of the abdomen
  • heartburn
  • appetite loss
  • a sick feeling
  • gas (burping, belching, or flatulence)

Improper eating habits are often to blame for these symptoms, but those habits can be changed.

Common Causes

The four most common causes of indigestion are:
Ulcers
Ulcers are created when there is a hole in the stomach lining or the stomach acid is out of balance. Ulcer pain can be very painful, and is worse after eating, resulting in heartburn.
Stress

Our bodies react to tension and issues in our lives with stress. Hormones are released which affect the body’s systems, causing indigestion, and other symptoms.

Reflux Condition

When acid in your stomach moves back up to the throat area, it is called gastroesophageal reflux disorder and creates a strong burning sensation.

Incompatible Foods

At times, an allergic reaction to certain foods can create indigestion. This is a common occurrence for many people, but is milder and less often than other causes of indigestion.
