A member asked:
Does stress cause stomach or digestive problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can but...: It's important to rule out other causes of digestive problems first. Stress often makes symptoms worse, and learning ways to handle stress can significantly improve symptoms and often the course of disease. This is how mind-body medicine practitioners can help.
