A member asked:

Does constipation give you heart burn and make your stomach hurt when you eat?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Yes it certainly can. When constipated, gas may back up and aggreavate heartburn symptoms. The resulting fullness can also cause stomache aches. Also eating stimulates the bowels to move which can cause further crampy pains..Until relieved.
