How to Relieve Stomach Pain Caused by Drinking Water?
Generally, we combat a burning sensation with water. But what can we do when water itself seems to be a problem? Here are a couple of things that you can try:

Try to drink warm water as it is easier to absorb.
Consult a doctor if any of the medical reasons ring true.
Adopt a healthier diet as overly processed or spiced foods can also irritate your stomach lining.
Test your water supply annually to check for any contamination.
Check your water pipes and make sure they are well-maintained without any leakage.

Thank you. That was very useful info.

Thank you for posting the excellent article about drinking water. Many things I didn’t know and am grateful to have this understanding.

@lacy2. It is important to test your well water, particularly after anything that may have affected it. We have well water from 700’ down and had to replace the pump last year. We ended up having to do two disinfections before it was pure enough. The impurities weren’t that bad, and some people probably would have lived with them but due to my compromised immune system we would not take a chance.

I think that site is basically one that links you to local businesses, so advertising, but it does have some good info. I was surprised that it didn’t mention salt in the water. Our well is next to the driveway so we are very careful not use salt on the driveway when there’s icy weather.

@lacy2 and others about water.. I have gastroparesis and often have diarrhea..I have a difficult time drinking a lot of water. A biochemist friend suggested I drink more Pedialyte or the generic Drug store Electrolyte Solution as often diarrhea is caused by poor hydration .. I also take a probiotic most days.. but the Hydration of my body seems so much better and easier now than when I was relying on tap water. (I live in a city with very good water according to Dept. of health standards. we even have a new water treatment plant...)
