What should be considered?

In the case of persistent or recurring loss of appetite and digestive problems, it is advisable to consult a doctor and have the causes clarified. Stomach pain that manifests itself as pain or pressure pain in a specific area or is associated with a general feeling of illness requires a medical evaluation. Remember that certain stimulants such as coffee, alcohol, nicotine, as well as certain medications such as painkillers and rheumatism drugs can cause stomach problems.
