You’ve heard of brain freeze. Have you heard of belly freeze?
My family thinks I’m strange for getting a belly freeze more often and more intensely than a brain freeze. Am I just strange or is this an actual thing?
Can you describe what it feels like? Is it more about the pain or the temperature? Brain freeze to me is far more about the pounding pain with quick onset.
I'm not a doctor but I'd get an upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy/ultrasound to check that shit out. They stick a hose up at the mouth and down the esophagus to look for shit. Easy peasy. Gastro doc should be able to do it, hopefully you live somewhere civilized.

It’s an intense cold right at the top of my stomach when I eat frozen foods. It pretty uncomfortable for about 10 sec.
Bro that sounds like acid reflux damage reacting to the cold. Do you have any other GI issues.
Haha not that I know of. I guess I should get that checked!
I've never heard of belly freeze
I don't get belly but I get chest freeze.
I came here hoping someone else said this cause I'm the same way!

What about back of throat freeze?
I get back freeze, and i find it far more painful than brain freeze.
Interesting, which part of the back?
Upper, like between my shoulder blades.
Sounds awful.
Yeah I get throat freeze.
Much preferable to the ball freeze.
Is that when they turn blue? I know I've gotten that many times...
I totally failed to make the connection!
