What Causes Recurring Stomach Problem And Headaches?
Hi my husband has had upset stomache off and on for about a week now and every once in awhile he gets the diahrea with it...it usually happens when he's being bounced around riding in equipment at work or playing with the kids....he also had headaches for 3 days straight? Were thinking its a possible interstinal track bug or something, otherwise maybe stomache ulcers?

With the vague symptoms you describe , it does sound similar to a intestinal viral infection such as gastroenteritis , enteritis, but typically this resolves in 7-14 days. If he has symptoms of reflux (burning sensation in throat and stomach, increased belching, sour taste in mouth, abdominal pain) this could possibly be related to stomach ulcer. Consider over the counter anti reflux medicine if this persists, otherwise seek medical advice regarding need for upper endoscopy . thank you
