A heavy feeling in the upper stomach can be caused by gallstones, digestive issues without a clear disease, or thyroid problems affecting the gut.
Feeling heaviness in the upper stomach can come from several sources.
Each of these causes can make your stomach feel heavy in different ways. If you're worried about how your stomach feels, it's a good idea to talk to someone who can help figure out what's going on.
