something you ateStomach pain is extremely common in the human experience because so many things are happening in the abdominal area, says Dr. Christine Lee, a gastroenterologist at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio.
“That’s a lot of organs packed into a small space, so the potential of something going awry or just going slower or faster to cause some discomfort — the chance of that happening is very high.” For the most accurate location, she asks patients to point to their abdominal pain while they’re standing or lying flat on their back because sitting shifts everything inside the abdominal space.
