Common causes of nighttime stomach pain include gastric ulcers, indigestion, gastric erosion, and gastritis. Patients should maintain regular eating habits, balance their intake of animal- and plant-based foods, consume more fresh vegetables and fruits, and limit spicy foods. Additionally, they should drink plenty of warm water to stay well-hydrated and support healthy metabolic function.
