Abdominal pain can be caused by many different conditions, and a diagnosis begins by locating the pain in the area of the abdomen that is affected. For instance, lower abdominal pain may mean ovarian cysts or appendicitis, while upper pain may mean peptic ulcer or heart attack. Severe pain that comes with other symptoms like vomiting is a medical emergency; a doctor can help identify and treat abdominal pain depending on findings.
