Hello,

Stomach pain at night may be caused by:
1. Gastritis
2. Peptic ulcer : because gastric acid may increase at night
3. Acid reflux
4. Gallstones
5. Pancreatitis

Lower abdominal pain may be caused by:
1. Inflammatory bowel problems
2. Irritable bowel syndrome

Until examination is done, it is difficult to say what it is. Avoid spicy food, alcohol, smoking and caffeine drinks. Use tablet Pantoprazole before breakfast for one week.

If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.

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

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
