Question
Hello doctor,
My father is 55 years old this year. My father often has a dull stomachache, with recently not eating well and losing a lot of weight. So the doctor asked me if I often have abdominal pain with weight loss? Thank you doctor.

Answered by Department of Medical Examination & Internal Medicine, Vinmec Hai Phong International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “Is it okay to have frequent stomachache with weight loss? ', the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Because the information you provided is not enough to suggest the diagnosis: You just said that your father has a dull, frequent abdominal pain, not clearly describing the location pain, moreover the doctor has not examined your father directly, so he cannot accurately diagnose your father's condition. Your father has the risk of malignancy (abdominal pain, weight loss, age), you should take him to the doctor immediately for timely diagnosis and treatment.
If you still have questions about frequent abdominal pain with weight loss, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
