Most problems are not serious and are usually caused by indigestion, wind or irregular eating habits.
Indigestion is a common complaint and often associated with a known cause - such as unwise eating or drinking.
Some people suffer these symptoms more frequently, because of an underlying problem such as inflammation of the stomach, an ulcer or hiatus hernia.
Whatever the cause, the symptoms are usually quite similar and can be distressing with upper abdominal discomfort, windiness, nausea and heartburn.
These symptoms are often relieved by antacids, peppermint, Paracetamol (NOT Aspirin) and possibly a hot water bottle.
