Dr. Bradford Romans answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Tummy ache?: Indigestion is a rather vague term .Think in descriptive terms like cramping, burning, nausea, heartburn, bloating, burping, painful, and also what makes it worse/better, to more accurately describe your complaint. Hope this was helpful. Alcohol is a chemical irritant that can cause inflammation in the stomach.
