What Causes Burning Sensation In The Stomach?

Hello my name is Bertice and I want to share my experience. I was asleep on afternoon when suddenly I jumped up out my sleep screaming because it felt like the right side of my stomach was being burned. When I looked at it it was red the following day it began to scab and peel and soon became raw as if I was really burnt. I don t know what could have caused the huge burn mark. I don t think it was spontaneous combustion.

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.

Suddenly getting up from the bed with a feeling of right side of stomach being burnt and then really becoming red and burnt followed by scabbing and peeling may be due to an insect bite.
Some insects are so poisonous that this can be caused.
In such a case, you need to consult a Physician and get a proper treatment with antihistamine and steroids and excision of the scab, daily dressings and an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory if required.
