What Causes Digestive and Abdominal Symptoms?

Digestive discomfort can stem from a wide range of issues, such as infections, inflammation, stress, poor diet, or underlying chronic conditions. While symptoms like nausea, pain, or changes in bowel habits may present similarly, the root cause can vary from person to person.

How We Diagnose Gastrointestinal Issues

At Piedmont Urgent Care, your visit starts with a focused physical exam to check for tenderness, swelling, or other signs of concern. We’ll discuss your symptoms, diet, and recent health history, then perform on-site tests if needed, including (but not limited to) urinalysis and bloodwork. If your symptoms suggest a more serious issue, we’ll guide you to the appropriate next steps, including imaging or ER referral.
