My mother always says to lie on your left side if you have stomach pain, it helps with gas. Or on your back with a pillow under your knees, that can also sometimes relieve pressure. A hot water bag is always helpful. But if the pain is severe or doesn't go away, please see a doctor. Home remedies have limits.
For stomach pain, try lying on your left side in a fetal position with your knees gently drawn towards your chest. This can sometimes help with digestion and gas release. Or, lie on your back and place a warm compress on your abdomen. Practice deep, calm breathing, that also helps to relax the abdominal muscles.
For general stomach discomfort, lying on your left side often helps with digestion and reducing heartburn. If it's gas pain, sometimes gently pulling your knees up to your chest while lying on your back can provide relief. A warm compress on your tummy is also very soothing. However, for severe or prolonged pain, please always consult a doctor.
Beta, pet mein dard ho toh, karwat le ke so jao. Ya phir, seedhe let ke ghutne mod lo, pet pe haath rakho. Thoda garam paani peeyo, aram milega. Agar bahut zyada dard ho, toh doctor ke paas jaana hi padega.
Usually, for stomach pain that's not serious, lying on your side in the fetal position can help, or on your back with your knees bent. These positions can relieve some pressure. Light walking, if you can manage it, sometimes helps with gas. But if the pain is severe or unusual, please don't push through it with exercise; see a doctor immediately.
