Stomach issues encompass a wide range of conditions including gastritis (stomach lining inflammation), peptic ulcers, acid reflux/GERD, functional dyspepsia, gastroparesis (delayed emptying), and sometimes symptoms of gallbladder disease or pancreatitis. Travelers frequently experience digestive disruptions due to dietary changes, different water sources, stress, schedule changes, and exposure to unfamiliar bacteria. Symptoms warranting prompt medical attention include severe or persistent pain, vomiting (especially with blood), dark/tarry stools, significant bloating, or fever. Diagnosis typically begins with thorough history and physical examination, sometimes requiring blood tests, stool analysis, breath tests for H. pylori, or imaging. Treatment varies by condition but may include acid reducers (antacids, H2 blockers, proton pump inhibitors), antibiotics for bacterial infections, prokinetics for motility issues, or specific dietary modifications. Mexican gastroenterologists often provide more comprehensive evaluations than time-constrained US practices, with endoscopic procedures available at 50-80% lower costs if needed for diagnosis.
