Symptoms such as a feeling of fullness in the epigastric region, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, noises from the abdomen, watery stool or diarrhea may correspond to acute and chronic gastric catarrh, fermentative diarrhea, indigestion, gastric prolapse, neurogenic gastritis, gastrointestinal weakness, hangover, belching, heartburn, stomatitis, and neurogenic irritability. These symptoms can arise due to decreased digestive function and inflammation in the stomach or neurogenic factors, so appropriate treatment and management are needed.
