What to do if there is no medicine for stomachache

Three meals a day are the normal food needs of the human body. The human body needs to obtain nutrients from food in order to maintain its vital signs. Incorrect eating habits or irregular eating times may lead to the possibility of stomach problems. For patients with stomach problems, when the disease occurs, they often experience unbearable pain and are unable to eat, and they need to take some painkillers to relieve the symptoms. But what should you do if you have stomachache and don’t have medicine?

1. If your stomach suddenly hurts and you have no medicine, remember to squat down, hug your stomach with both hands, press your upper body on your legs as much as possible, and press your stomach tightly. This will improve the sharp feeling in your stomach.

2 When you have stomachache: remember to pour a glass of hot water and drink it. This will also help relieve the pain. This is because the stomach pain may be caused by excessive stomach acid, so drinking water will dilute it.

3. When you have stomach pain: It may be caused by eating too much. At this time, you can take some digestive medicine, or stay still and let your stomach be in a peaceful digestion state.

4 When you have stomachache: remember to drink a glass of concentrated milk, it must be pure milk. After drinking it, it will also improve your stomachache. Because when milk enters the stomach, it will separate the stomach wall from other substances and reduce pain.

5. Sometimes stomachache is caused by hunger. At this time, remember to always prepare some snacks at your workplace so that when you feel hungry, you can eat something, which can also reduce stomachache.

6. When you have stomachache:

(1) Massage the Neiguan acupoint: The Neiguan acupoint is located in the middle of the wrist, about three finger widths (the width of three fingers put together) away from the wrist crease. Locate the acupoint between the two tendons and massage it with your thumb, moving it in circles 36 times, alternating between your two hands. When pain occurs, increase the number to 200 times.

(2) Press Zusanli: The Zusanli acupoint is located three inches below the edge of the knee (the width of four fingers together), between the tibia and the shin bone. Press the Zusanli point with the tips of your thumbs, 36 times normally, and about 200 times when it hurts, with a slightly heavier pressure.

(3) Massage the abdomen: Cross your hands, with the right hand on top and the left hand on the bottom for men; and the left hand on top and the right hand on the bottom for women. With the navel as the center, massage the abdomen and draw Tai Chi movements, 36 circles clockwise and 36 circles counterclockwise. This method can relieve pain and bloating and increase appetite.
