Heating pad burns: Leaving the heating pad on your stomach overnight is a bad idea, it could lead to burns. Be very careful with heating pads. 19 year old lady, with nausea and stomach discomfort. I have no medical or surgical history, medicines or allergies. Make sure you make an appointment with your primary care provider if your nausea and stomach comfort persist.
