What could be severe heartburn that turns into stomach pain?
Is the heartburn leading to stomach pain happening after eating certain foods, after certain activities, after eating any food, or just all the time?
If one of the first two, try cutting out the particular food/s or activities in question and see if the problem eases.
If one of the last two, try to monitor for any other triggers and, if you can identify them, cut them out.
If the problem's occurring frequently and with no apparent trigger, see a doctor immediately. It could be something quite simple that a doctor can treat easily.
If it's infrequent, or avoiding foods or activities that seem to be setting off the symptoms helps, give it a little while. If symptoms still persist, don't leave it; see your doctor. Again, it's probably easy to treat.
Checking with a doctor sets your mind at rest and stops you worrying you might be suffering from something serious. Bear in mind that of all the people waiting in your doctor's surgery each day, very few will turn out to be seriously ill.
Putting off visiting the doctor only leads to more worry, and we know that worry - stress - can contribute to ill health.
