What Causes Stomach Ache After Having Meals?

In the last week, I have been having stomach pains at times after consuming a meal and after a while the pain subsides. I have diverticulitis but I have no pain on the left side. When I first was experiencing the pain, I would take an Advil and that helped. I have no other symptoms such as nausea and my stools are normal. Thank you.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

* The stomach ache after meals suggests underlying intestine inflammation, ulcer or other issue.
* In our clinic I recommend

- Dietary precautions to avoid spices, dairy fat.
- More liquids intake.
- Keeping stomach empty by 25 % of satiety levels.
- Regular walk, deep breathing exercises.
- Proton pump inhibitors, anti spasmodic medications as per the need.
- Follow up regularly for future need of evaluation with upper GI endoscopy, ultrasound or CT scan.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
