Why does my stomach hurt when i drink milk (whole milk)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible lactose intolerance: You may have developed lactose intolerance, which is a decrease or complete lack of an ability to break down the sugar lactose, which is the sugar found primarily in milk. You may want to see a physician to discuss this more thoroughly. Options may be to switch to a lactose-free type of milk or take lactase supplements.
