A member asked:
When you get abdominal pain from food, is the food in stomach, small intestines, or colon?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The food is indeed in the stomach, small intestine, or colon. The pain can be from those and other places. For example, pain can be in the esophagus but the food should already have moved into the stomach. Pain can be in the gallbladder, but food doesn't go in there. Pain can be in the pancreas, but food doesn't go there either. Pain is a sign that something is not right... so a doctor can check.
