Indigestion vs GI Cancer: Know the Difference

Sometimes, stomach upset is just from eating too much or spicy food.

But if it keeps happening or gets worse, it might be something more serious, like GI cancer.

Common indigestion usually goes away with medicine or a diet change.

But if you have pain that doesn't go away, lose weight without trying, or feel very full after small meals, you should see a doctor.

Smoking, drinking too much alcohol, and eating processed foods can make these problems more likely.

Eating healthy, exercising, and getting regular check-ups can help catch problems early.

Tests like endoscopy can find issues before they get bad.

The goal is to know when to worry and when to just take an antacid.
