What can work related stress do to your stomach?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Short term/chronic: The immediate stress response can cause pain, nausea, and diarrhea. Chronic stress can alter the brain gut connection, which can upset the intestinal microflora, and aggravate a number of conditions, including reflux disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and inflammatory bowel disease. A number of stress reduction tools can help, and your MD might recomend medications, probiotics, and dietary changes
