Anxiety and stress can definitely contribute to any GI condition. People with irritable bowel syndrome will tell you that’s one of the biggest causes of bad flare ups. If you’re already prone to stomach issues, stress is very aggravating.
Yes it can. Stress and anxiety are very hard on the abdomen. Ever notice how you sort of lose your appetite? Can cause excess digestive fluids, even when there is nothing in the abdomen to digest. and they can and often do, travel into the esophagus. Anxiety can cause all kinds of digestive problems. and as you know, stomach ulcers are very often caused by stress.
