Any stomach ache miracle cures?

[dis-me]

Aaaah, I have such a stomach ache, think it was something I ate.

It's a constant dull ache with occasional really bad cramp-like pains.

Anyone know any good non-medicinal remedies? I'm trying to drink lots of water and not eat anything to aggrevate it.

ginger ale. Preferably flat. Ginger is one of the best things for stomach aches and nausea

I agree with the Ginger Ale. If you don't have that, try some flat coke or pepsi. Hope you feel better soon!

 

[dis-me]

Thank you! I am going to buy some on my way home.

Papaya enzyme is helpful if you have gas. And you can eat ginger snaps as well. Sometimes it's actually good to have a little something solid in your tummy to absorb stomach acids.

Cola syrup. You can purchase it in the pharmacy. It's faster than waiting for the soda to go flat.

Be sure to stick the BRAT (banana, rice, applesauce, toast (dry) once you do start eating again. Sometimes Ginger or peppermint tea are soothing on an upset stomach.

A friend of mine swears by peppermint.

ginger ale. Preferably flat. Ginger is one of the best things for stomach aches and nausea

room temp too if you can.

I usually find eating a mint like spearmint or peppermint helps. Hope you feel better! Also drinking rootbeer or grape soda might help you to burb & release some of the irritation.

Another vote for ginger. Any kind of ginger. If you want to make the soda flat, add a few teaspoons of sugar and shake (with the cover on..... )

Stick with the BRAT diet for a day or so after you start to feel better.

Sprite always helps me. If your stomach feels acidic in any way, a little glass of milk can help too.
Hope you feel better!

Antacids and peppermint will usually clear up most of my stomach aches.

A hot bath usually works for me.

Peppermint candy. My grandma gave me that advice many years ago. It works.

 

[diznygirl]

My grandma always said hot tea with no milk.

Tea was her cure for everything!

Cola syrup. You can buy it at the pharmacy. Pharmacist recommended it. Works great.

Mix a tsp of baking soda in a glass of water and drink it. It tastes vile, but if you chase it with plain water and hold your nose while drinking it, you can get it down. Baking soda neutralizes any acid in your stomach and gets rid of air. It's really good for anything that your system is not at all happy with.

Ice pack. Or heating pad. If one doesn't work, try the other,

If you keep having these symptons, I would see a doctor. I had these symptons for a long time before I finally went to the doctor and when I did, it was my gallbladder. I had almost let it go too long(almost a year) before having it removed and it had almost gotten to a dangerous state. Recovery was so much less pain than what I had gone through before the surgery.
