Yes, although cramps from overheating often are in the legs, they can be in any part of the body including the stomach. They are usually sudden and severe from sodium being lost from the body during heavy sweating.

Yes, stomach cramps can occur due to over heating of the body temperature. More precisely when hot and chilly foods are consumed especially in summer seasons. Certain foods such as eggs, papaya, mangoes are known to produce heat in the body. Excessively consumed spices also creat havoc in the stomach
