This may be more obvious in certain circumstances, like if you just ate a greasy, spicy meal that you don&rsquo;t normally eat. Even for causes that aren&rsquo;t so obvious, the following home remedies may offer some relief.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"1-the-brat-diet\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. The BRAT Diet<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BRAT is an acronym for bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. Eating these bland foods in small amounts when you have an upset stomach can help you feel better. &ldquo;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/what-to-eat-when-you-have-the-flu\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The BRAT diet<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is easy on the stomach and can help firm up loose stools,&rdquo; says Dr. Pratap Singh. These foods are easy to digest and provide the benefits you need when you have an upset stomach or digestion problems:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bananas are high in fiber, potassium, and antioxidants. A benefit of bananas is that they can help with both constipation and diarrhea.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plain rice has starch that helps coat the stomach and is easy to digest.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Applesauce is hydrating, contains vitamin C, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/nutrition\/eat-these-fruits-for-their-anti-inflammatory-benefits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">has anti-inflammatory effects<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and can boost gut health.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Toast is easily digested and provides the body with carbohydrates.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"2-ginger\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Ginger<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/blog\/ginger-benefits\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ginger<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a versatile spice that&rsquo;s used to treat a variety of ailments, including gastrointestinal issues. It is also recommended for pregnant women to help with morning sickness. &ldquo;Ginger has natural anti-inflammatory properties and can help soothe the stomach, says Dr. Pratap Singh.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are various ways to consume ginger, such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drinking ginger tea or natural ginger ale, provided it has real ginger as an ingredient<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eating or sucking on ginger candies<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sprinkling ginger powder or grated fresh ginger root onto your food<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking ginger supplements<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"3-peppermint\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3.

The menthol and methyl salicylate in peppermint can also relieve symptoms of nausea. &ldquo;Peppermint oil, either in the form of peppermint tea or capsules, can help calm the stomach and relieve bloating and gas,&rdquo; says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehcginstitute.com\/doctors\/danielle-kelvas-md\">Danielle Kelvas<\/a>, MD, a primary care physician with The HCG Institute in Chattanooga, Tennessee<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Peppermint can also help break down food, which can alleviate stomach pain related to constipation. Additionally, the scent of peppermint can <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/health.clevelandclinic.org\/morning-sickness-10-tips-to-tame-your-turbulent-tummy-day-or-night\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">help with morning sickness<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To benefit from peppermint for an upset stomach, you could eat or suck on peppermint candy or take a supplement form of peppermint oil.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"4-hydration\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Hydration<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&rsquo;s important that you get enough fluids. Dehydration can cause stomach pain, so making sure that you are hydrated can help ease abdominal discomfort. It also aids digestion and softens the stool, making it easier to have a bowel movement and relieve any pain associated with constipation. &ldquo;Sip on clear fluids like water, herbal teas, or electrolyte solutions to stay hydrated and flush out toxins,&rdquo; says Dr. Pratap Singh. Another way to rehydrate your body is to drink sports drinks with electrolytes.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"5-probiotics\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Probiotics<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Probiotics are a type of good bacteria that can promote a healthy immune system and aid in digestion. You can find probiotics in yogurt and other foods or dairy products with cultured milk. Probiotics can also be found in fermented juice like apple cider vinegar. There are also probiotic supplements that you can take.. &ldquo;Probiotics can also be beneficial in reducing symptoms of indigestion and stomach upset, especially in cases where the upset stomach is caused by an infection,&rdquo; says Dr. Kelvas.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"6-a-heating-pad\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. A heating pad<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The heat from a heating pad or a warm compress can help relax any tense stomach muscles that are causing an upset stomach. This form of treatment is typically suggested for menstrual cramps and cramps related to IBS.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"7-licorice\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Licorice<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Hester also recommends licorice as a natural remedy that can help soothe stomach pain. Natural licorice (containing glycyrrhizin) can help with stomach pain related to digestion issues and acid reflux due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. You can drink licorice tea or consume it in the form of extracts and capsules. Pregnant women may want to avoid natural licorice products due to the possibility of harmful effects on the developing fetus.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"8-rest\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8. Rest<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your stomach pain is due to a chronic illness or the type of foods you eat, resting may be helpful to soothe your pain. &ldquo;Adequate rest and relaxation can aid the healing process, especially if stress is a contributing factor,&rdquo; says Dr. Pratap Singh.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"natural-remedies-for-an-upset-stomach-that-dont-work\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural remedies for an upset stomach that don&rsquo;t work<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have an upset stomach, be cautious of the advice you receive for soothing it. Some are simply myths that may have worked for some people but aren&rsquo;t proven remedies.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"flat-soda\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flat soda<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although carbonated soda can inflate the stomach and cause acid reflux, flat soda can help keep you hydrated if you&rsquo;re having trouble keeping liquids down. That doesn&rsquo;t mean it&rsquo;s a quick fix, though. For example, sodas with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/health.unl.edu\/4-home-remedies-upset-stomach-plus-6-things-avoid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">caffeine can make an upset stomach and dehydration worse<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Water and sports drinks with electrolytes are better options.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"turmeric\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turmeric<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turmeric is a type of spice in the ginger family that has a bitter taste. Even though people sometimes use turmeric to treat an upset stomach, there is little research to support its benefits.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"aloe-vera-juice\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aloe vera juice<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aloe vera juice is created by mixing the gel from an aloe vera plant with water. Although often purported to help digestive issues, there is not a lot of research to support that it relieves stomach pain. Also, aloe vera juice can cause diarrhea, which creates stomach cramping and pain from dehydration.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-to-treat-an-upset-stomach-when-natural-remedies-dont-work\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to treat an upset stomach when natural remedies don&rsquo;t work<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If none of the natural home remedies are working, you could try OTC medications like Pepto-Bismol (bismuth subsalicylate) or calcium carbonate antacids (TUMS and Rolaids) to treat your stomach pain. &ldquo;OTC medications like TUMS or Maalox can be a reliable go-to for quick relief,&rdquo; says <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/patientempowerment101\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ann Maria Hester, MD<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a board-certified internist and author of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patient Empowerment 101: More than a book, it&#8217;s an adventure! <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These medications neutralize stomach acid to provide fast relief.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"when-to-see-a-doctor-for-an-upset-stomach\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When to see a doctor for an upset stomach<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;Sometimes an upset stomach is a warning sign of something more serious,&rdquo; says Dr. Hester. &ldquo;If you find yourself facing persistent stomach problems, it&#8217;s advisable to seek medical attention to address the underlying causes.&rdquo;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/symptoms\/abdominal-pain\/basics\/when-to-see-doctor\/sym-20050728\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mayo Clinic<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> advises to call 911 for severe abdominal pain if it is from an injury or accident or if it is accompanied by chest pressure.

Healthcare providers often ask detailed questions to determine the cause of an upset stomach, according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/symptoms\/4167-abdominal-pain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleveland Clinic<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, since the terms &ldquo;stomach ache&rdquo; and &ldquo;upset stomach&rdquo; describe pain that may be anywhere in the abdomen. Because several digestive tract organs are located in the abdomen, it&rsquo;s important for doctors to figure out which, if any, may be causing the discomfort.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although occasional stomach upset shouldn&rsquo;t be of concern, it could be caused by something more serious, like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/conditions-and-diseases\/appendicitis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">appendicitis<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and require immediate medical attention. Other less severe causes of stomach aches include food intolerance or allergies, drinking alcohol, stress, eating too much, and eating certain foods.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&ldquo;It&#8217;s important to be mindful of the types of food that you eat. Some foods can be more difficult to digest, such as fatty and greasy fast food,&rdquo; says <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/david-seitz-md-b42476a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David Seitz, MD<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the medical director at <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ascendantny.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ascendant Detox<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in New York City.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain medications can also cause stomach aches. &ldquo;Medications like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.singlecare.com\/drug-classes\/nsaids\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can irritate the stomach lining,&rdquo; says <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/drcure.com\/team\/tez-pratap-singh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tez Pratap Singh, MD<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a healthcare provider at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/drcure.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Cure<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provided your stomach isn&rsquo;t caused by medication or a chronic illness, at-home upset stomach remedies can make you more comfortable without needing to see a healthcare provider.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The occasional upset stomach may be inconvenient and uncomfortable, but the good news is that there are ways to relieve your discomfort at home without the need to see a doctor.
