Is olive oil good when you have a stomach ache?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not specifically: Olive oil would not be expected to relieve abdominal pains. You need to see a doctor for evaluation. Olive oil could make you feel worse if your problem is from gallstones or pancreatitis. I guess that it may be possible that olive oil could transiently reduce gastritis symptoms for some but would not be exoected to have long term success. Excess oil could cause diarrhea for some.
