What is a dyspepsia?

Dyspepsia is the term applied to difficulty in digesting food. Its means painful, difficult or disturbed digestion. Dyspepsia affects almost one-forth of the adult population in the U.S. It is often defined as a chronic or recurrent discomfort centered in the upper abdomen and can be caused by a variety of conditions. It includes a group of symptoms that come from a problem in your upper gut. The gut is the tube that starts at the mouth, and ends at the anus. The pain might come and go, but it is normally there most of the time.

There are three types of dyspepsia:

1) Ulcer- in which the primary symptom is pain.
2) Motility-in which the primary symptoms may be bloating and gas.
3) Reflux-in which the primary symptom is similar to that of heartburn.
