What is stomach pain after dinner?

Stomach pain after dinner may be caused by indigestion, gastric ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux, etc.

1. Indigestion

If you eat too much at dinner or choose improper food, it will cause stomach pain.

2. Gastric ulcer

Due to Helicobacter pylori infection, long-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other reasons, gastric mucosa is damaged. After dinner, gastric acid secretion increases, stimulating ulcer area, causing pain.

3. Gastroesophageal reflux

After dinner, if you lie flat or bend over, etc., it will stimulate gastric acid reflux to the esophagus, causing pain.
