Dyspepsia is a constant pain in the stomach. Constant pains include indigestion and heartburn. Another discomfort is nausea. Functional dyspepsia has no visible cause. Other forms may be identified by X-rayor endoscopy.

Dyspepsia may be caused by conditions such as stomach ulcers. It is often aggravated by high acidityin the stomach. It may also be caused as a side-effect of drugstreating other illnesses such as arthritisand schizophrenia. Sometimes no specific cause can be found.

The term "dyspepsia" is both medical and general, and the term "dyspeptic" has come to mean "as if bothered by ulcers, irritable."
