Do stomach ulcers rupture?


If its not ulcers, what else would cause bleeding and vomiting if the stomach?
----------

I think you are reffering to a perforated ulcer. Perforated ulcers are extremely serious and occur when an ulcer eats a hole in the wall of the stomach or duodenum. Bacteria and partially digested food can spill through the opening into the sterile abdominal cavity (peritoneum). This causes an inflammation of the abdominal cavity and wall. A perforated ulcer that can cause sudden, sharp, severe pain usually requires immediate hospitalization and surgery.  (+ info)

Does this sound like the stomach virus?


About 2 and a half days ago my stomach started hurting really bad. I've had a loss in appetite. Unlike other people who have this virus, I'm able to keep everything down and I haven't thrown up, once. I only have a slight fever but my stomach hurts soooooo bad! I feel like it's gonna rupture. Also, I've noticed that I constantly feel like I need to poop but whenever I go to the bathroom, nothing comes out! Nothing! Is this the stomach virus? Or is it something else?

See a doctor.  (+ info)

what besides appendicitis causes lower right stomach pain?


I have very intense lower right stomach pain. It is much worse upon standing and very painful upon standing after voiding. I know its not appendicitis because three of my children have had ruptured appendices so I know what to look for there.
I do not have a fever or nausea bowel function is normal. I do not have health insurance so I can just go to doctor if its something minor. But this pain is so intense that I walk like a very pregnant woman! (I am not pregnant!)
----------

go to the hospital, they'll bill u later. They can't refuse a patient because they have no health insurance. It's illegal. They'll bill u. Deal with the payment later  (+ info)

can getting punched in the stomach cause?


a rupture intestine or stomach and how would you know?
----------

I don't think you can rupture a intestine concidering its a tube but you can rupture alot of other things down in there like your stomach, spleen, pancreas, and some other things. You would know because it would hurt so increasingly bad that you couldn't move like litterally screaming in pain, probably be coughing up alot of blood. Blunt force trama to the stomach area is serious and can sometimes be fatal especially in children, woman, and the elderly.  (+ info)

Can having sex rupture a swollen spleen?


My BF has mono, and he is getting over it but still cant lift anything heavy or be hit in the stomach since his spleen is swollen and it could rupture. He thinks its ok, but thats a typical guy. I just want to know whether it is safe? or what positions are and which aint. Thanks

unlikely but if he were falling off the bed all the time it might. besides having sex with somebody with mono, puts you at risk for catching it too.  (+ info)
