But the next morning it seems to be better but after I get up and been moving around it seems like I am bloated and the pain starts again. I am very scared please tell do you think it is serious.
<start> Hi, Noted your history about severe spasmodic pains in upper abdomen, getting better in the morning but then bloating and the pain starts again.This is a classical history of intestinal obstruction, spasmodic pain followed by bloating. Although there is no nausea or vomiting that you have mentioned the possibility of intestinal obstruction, particularly of large bowel must be watched for, as in such a case the nausea and vomiting may be absent.Hence I would advise you the following:Rush to ER or nearby hospital as the facility would be available.X-ray of abdomen in standing position is the cheapest and simplest investigation that shows intestinal obstruction.Additions tests of blood, urine, stool can help further for diagnosis andproper management.The initial treatment can be conservative by intravenous fluids, keeping you nil orally.If this does not solve the problems then you may need surgery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. T Chandrakant, ENT & General Surgeon <end>

What causes upper abdominal pain post intake of Ibuprofen during menstruation?
I'm having stomach pain that hasn't gone away for a few hours, mostly right under my ribs. I just started my period yesterday, so I took 4 ibuprofen this morning at around 7AM, another 4 at 12PM, and then 2 Midol at 4PM- I don't have any cramps that feel like usual menstrual cramps, but instead my stomach feels like it's cramping. I've been somewhat dizzy and shaky and nauseous, plus I've had diarrhea since yesterday- I thought this was all period problems, but my stomach has been really bothering me over the past few hours. I haven't taken any medication since 4PM, and it's now 1AM and my stomach is still hurting, almost like I need to throw up but haven't. Is this just a problem from taking too much medication earlier that'll go away soon, or something more like an ulcer?

What can cause severe stomach ache and nausea?
Each month, for about a year or more now, I experience severe stomach pain that induces nausea, and it is starting to concern me. It feels like a blunt kind of pain, and at times I think it’s gas or a need to use the bathroom for number two, not to be gross. I struggle with constipation and it often resolves itself in the form of painful diarrhea. These past two months, I noticed that this pain came the same day I tried new foods that did not particularly sit well with me. I think that may have something to do about it, but what about the other months? I just noticed today that I’m mid-cycle and ovaluating, which made me wonder if PMS has something to do with this? I never get these pains when I’m having my period or on the days surrounding it. I would appreciate input, as this is starting to overwhelm me.

What does inexplicable pain in the lower abdomen along with nausea and vomiting indicate?
I have been lower abdominal/pelvic pain for 9 weeks now. I initially went to the ER when it started and the doctor was 99% sure it was appendicitis but my scan was negative, was sent home with an rx for pain meds and antinausea meds. I went back 2 days later because the pain had gotten worse and had another scan to check again for appendicitis, again it was negative. The doctor then suggested he thought it may be GI related to follow up with a GI doctor. I have since been seen by a GI doctor who performed an EGD and colonoscopy, said he couldn t find a reason gor the pain. I had another scan performed with IV dye and had to drink contrast to check for possible hernias, this scan was also negative. I then followed up with my GYN who has put me on Bentyl for possible colon spasms. I have been taking this for about a week and my pain seems worse and at times feels like it is in the epigastric area along with nausea and vomiting. The only other medicine I take is adderall 20 mgs 3 × day for narcolepsy. I am losing faith in my medical community, I am searching for answers/possibilities, can you please help me? I am a 40 year old, white, female. I have had a complete hysterectomy and no longer have a gall bladder.

What does intermittent sharp pain in the lower abdomen indicate?
hi i am experiencing a pain in the left bottom part of my stomach but its not constant and isnt always there and occasionally there is a sharp pain and just recently i had a pin the bottom left of my back also im not sure if its something ti be worried about or just wait it out.
<start> If your pain is affected by taking food (aggravate or relieved) it might be due to ulcers in your stomach. If you experience sharp pain in back and additional other symptoms like mild temperature, difficulty in micturation or burning micturation than it might be due to kidney problem (infection or stone). in both the scenario treatment will be different. In first case you can take advice of MD physcian for further investigation and final diagnosis. <end>

What does constant left-sided pain in the lower abdomen indicate?
I have a pain on my lower left side where I imagine my ovaries are...about 2 fingers up from my leg. I have had the pain for a month, starting first as an ache or two but now the pain is constant but more annoying than anything else. What do you think? Thanks!

But if the pain really bothers you it's better to rule out any ominous Pathology by doing an ultrasound <end>

What do pain in the lower abdomen and flatulence indicate?
I have pain in my colon with lots of gas that I can t pass. I took a protein drink before working out last night and had pain last night. It went away this morning but returned this evening. I took some baking soda in water a half hour ago and still have the pain in my lower colon! I have had this before, but doesn t happen every time I use the protein drink, but that seems to be the trigger. Could that drink cause a blockage? I do know it causes lots of gas and was unable to pass it last night. I took an advil last night and the pain went away after a bit. I took an advil about an hour ago and pain is not as bad, but still there.

How can recurrent abdominal pain, the source of which cannot be identified, be treated?
I have been in pain for about 6 months now. It started as a little pain in my lower stomach, over the course of about a week it slowly localized to my lower right abdomen. I was constantly peeing and there was no sense of relief after peeing like there normally is and I also wasn t letting out a lot of urine. Eventually the pain was constant but sometimes it wasn t as bad as others. The pain eventually got so bad I had to go to the hospital, the doctor finally got around to me after waiting for about 5 hours, she pushed on my side and just by the way I jumped when she pushed she told me it was most likely appendicitis. The nurse told me I would have to stay on an if overnight and get an ultra sound in the morning. The ultra sound didn t show anything but they said my appendix might just have been behind something so they decided to do a cat scan even though they normally don t do them on someone as young as me because they wanted to be sure. After the cat scan the doctor told me I most likely had mesenteric lymphadenitis and if he were to magnify my cat scan results he would see swollen lyphnodes and he basically said there was nothing that would get rid of it, but it would eventually go away on it s own. He said they would normally have someone with this stay on iv fluids for a few days but they just didn t have the room. The doctor suggested drinking Pepsi because it has a lot of sodium and that would help almost like how you gargle warm water with salt when the lyphnodes in your throat are swollen. So I took his advice and also booked an appointment with my doctor for about a month later. I told my doctor what the doctor at the hospital said it most likely was and he said that it could be that but brushed it off saying it was probably just menstrual pains, I m no doctor but I don t think menstrual pains are a permanent pain. He also said it could be a very small ovarian cyst which is too small to see on an ultra sound and therefore too small it worry about. Five months later I m still in the same amount of pain as when I went to the hospital.
<start> Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

<start> Hello,It seems that you have developed an abdominal muscle strain. It may have been caused because of excessive strain on the abdominal muscles due to the planks you have performed. I would advise you to apply ice pack on the affected area to reduce the inflammation.Also, alternate it with applying heat to help in muscle relaxation. Take an over the counter painkiller like Advil or Naproxen drug to reduce pain and inflammation.After you recover from the pain you can perform abdominal muscle strengthening exercises like curl-ups and pelvic tilts which are good muscle therapies. If the pain is not relieved or increases in severity, get yourself checked by a physician.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Nazma Amman <end>
