However, to add insult to injury, the Merseysiders could be without seven of the main players of their squad — Adam Lallana (groin injury), Steven Gerrard (3 - match suspension), Martin Skrtel (also suspended), Dejan Lovren (
abdominal wall injury), Daniel Sturridge, Raheem Sterling and Simon Mignolet (all unspecified)-- for the visit to North London.
Risk factors for stomach or
abdominal problems include any dogs that take corticosteroids or anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), eating garbage or other unusual foods (pancreatitis), eating a foreign body which causes an obstruction,
injury to the abdomen and a hernia, which is a bulge in the
wall of the abdomen.
