Stomach issues come up for many reasons. They are temporary most of the time, but they can signify something much more severe if they begin to show up with consistency. The leading cause of most stomach-related disorders is unhealthy food habits. Your digestion affects the functioning of the whole body.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Diarrhoea, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), Gallstones, Celiac Disease, Crohn’s disease, and Ulcerative colitis (UC) are some common disorders that people suffer from.

Signs

A consistency in problems like GAS, change in stool habits, indigestion and bloating can be a sign of something serious. Anything abnormal that you notice that becomes prolonged can signify a Digestive Disorder. The advice is to get checked with an expert as soon as you observe blood in the stool that is either bright or dark, unusual abdominal or gas pains, tight stool, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, or anaemia.
