i think it's the other way around: when your stomach hurts, you take pepto bismol to relieve the pain!

Do you have the abdominal pains with any other foods?  Avacados are very high in fat.  Sometimes people with gall bladder issues are unable to tolerate fatty foods.  \n\nTalk to your doctor about the issue.  Either to test for food allergies or to check your gall bladder.\n\nGood luck and hope you're feeling better soon!

Well, it's best to find out why your getting these stomach problems. Keep a diary of what you eat and try and find the foods that are upsetting your stomach. Milk does me bad, I stay away from it but drink an alternative to it so I can continue getting my vitamins. You could try pepto bismol for this right now if you are experiencing discomfort. (I sound like the commercial).

Some fruits, especially citrus fruit, contains a lot of acid and can be hard to digest, and if you're prone to acid reflux, it can be very hard on your stomach.  Try making your own blends and experiment with fruit juices that your stomach has less of a problem with. There are some reduced acid juice options you might want to try. You might also want to try chewing a Tums after every serving. The added calcium is a bonus anyway.

I bet you're pregnant with a turkey...\n\nEither that or you're still digesting the ginormous servings that you scarfed yesterday.  Take some pepto bismal or Tums.  It'll go away in a day or two.

hmm..  lets see that would be about 3 years ago..I had stomach surgery and there is a staple line in my stomach and I ate some soup and started having this terrible pain.  I thought I had ruptured my stomach.  Hubby rushed me to the ER and they doped me up with lots of morphine and muscle relaxers before they could even examine me to see what was going on.  It turned out that the staple line was ok..My stomach was spasming and everytime it would spasm it would pull on that wound..OUCH   lol..never been so high in my life though..Morphine rocks!!!

it wont hurt you BUT it has alot of acid in it so it will make your stomach hurt more and yu'll throw up more too. Try some gatorade, ginger ale, sprite, or some water. Get better soon!! :)

http://www.pepto-bismol.com/history.shtml\n\nIt says a Dr. mixed up the first form of Pepto and added colorant to make it pink, it doesn't say why he wanted it to be pink.  Probably because once he mixed up the ingredients it looked nasty and he added color to make it look better and pink is just the color that happened.

No, there is absolutely NO fat in Pepto Bismol! It is thick because of the ingredients in it, none of which is fat. There shouldn't be any calories either because it is sweetened with saccharin. Ingredients listed below, but you really need to eat real food! If you have stomach problems, see a doctor. It isn't good to keep taking any medicine for very long.\n\nActive Ingredients: Bismuth Subsalicylate (525 mg (236mg of salicylate))\n\nInactive Ingredients: Benzoic Acid, Flavor, Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, Methylcellulose, Red 22, Red 28, Saccharin Sodium, Salicylic Acid, Sodium Salicylate, Sorbic Acid, Water

the abdominal pain maybe due to different reasons, bad digestion, gas, irritable colon, nervous, and other things, so for a good treatment and prevention u first have to know what s the cause , so u really need to see a doctor first, he will check on the child and then tell u what to do exactly,\nanyway children an adults are supposed to eat natural and not junk food, no Coke or soda or de like, no much sweety things, keep a healthy diet and eat not so much quantities is the key for a good stomach and intestinal function, avoid nervous and avoid laying down after eating, anyway in case of recurrent acute pain, is always needed to see a good doctor,

Misinformation is the biggest reason.  A previous answer suggests that every time one takes a pain pill it harms the stomach.  That's an example of misinformation that can scare people away from reasonable steps that could make them comfortable.  Aspirin has a reputation for harming the lining of the stomach. That can happen, but only after taking aspirin in large, frequent doses for many days.  The simple solution to that is to take enteric-coated aspirin, which does not dissolve in the stomach.  If one is allergic to aspirin - and one should NEVER assume on one's own that one is allergic - then there are other over-the-counter medicines that can relieve cramps.  Motrin is one, tylenol is another.  Then there are the medicines meant specifically for menstrual cramps, such as Pamprin.  Several of the women I've known very personally have found that a heating pad or hot water bottle held against the area that's hurting can help the painkiller pills work better. It is foolish to fail to make onesself comfortable when it's so easy and inexpensive to do so because Aunt Myrtle or some other poorly informed person tells you it is dangerous.   Take your pills and brew Aunt Myrtle a nice cup of tea and change the subject!

Immodium.  I'm finishing up nursing school.  I have never been given an order to give Pepto Bismul.  Pepto can actually do more damage than good to you gastrointestinal tract given the aspirin content.  \n\nImmodium works better, and it's in pill form & you don't have to worry about the taste!!

Your bowels can only feel pain from two sources, either a puncture or tear or hole in the intestinal tissue, or distension, which is the pain you feel from gas, or over eating where your intestines are distended, or stretched to the max. The stomach itself is the same. Ulcerated stomachs feel pain from the hole in them, and distended stomachs feel pain from being stretched to the max.
