When To See a Doctor

Mild dyspepsia or indigestion that occurs infrequently is quite common and may be easily managed with dietary or lifestyle changes or over-the-counter medication. However, immediate medical attention may be necessary if the symptoms increase in frequency or intensity.3Pesce, Marcella, et al. ‘Diet and Functional Dyspepsia: Clinical Correlates and Therapeutic Perspectives.’ World Journal of Gastroenterology, Baishideng Publishing Group Inc, 7 Feb. 2020, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7015717/

If a person experiences severe abdominal pain, frequent vomiting and changes in bowel movements along with bouts of indigestion, they should see a doctor as soon as possible to get a diagnosis.
