Stomach aches causes and home cures 

It is difficult to suggest any treatment based on such a limited description of one single symptom, but the best cure for a stomach ache is to give your stomach a break. Avoid oily, spicy food, anything that is heavy to digest, and in fact, if possible, stick to fruit juices for at least a day. Particularly if you are also throwing up, it is important to drink enough fluids to prevent dehydration, so fruit juices will be especially useful as they will keep your body hydrated and supplied with most of the necessary nutrients while not being too hard on your system.


You can also apply a warm compress to your stomach using a hot water bottle; this will provide a great deal of relief from the pain.

If you suffer from frequent stomach aches, you should visit your doctor as there may be some more basic, chronic problem that needs to be fixed. Also, if by “stomach ache” you simply mean abdominal pain, you should probably visit your doctor.


The source of the pain depends on where in the abdomen the pain is, and since you have not provided any details, it is not possible to say what the problem could be.
