What Causes Abdominal Pain Along With Headache And Dizziness?

For about three weeks, I have had abdominal discomfort, at time some pain with palpation, excess gas, along with intermittent headache and dizziness, some times with fatigue. Thought it may have been diet at first, yet no resolution with avoidance of suspect foods. What might be issues and resolution?

Good Evening,
Thanks for given information,I have checked your symptoms, It is caused by inflammation, distention of an organ, or by loss of the blood supply to an organ.
In irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) it may be caused by contraction of the intestinal muscles or hyper-sensitivity to normal intestinal activities.

Doctors determine the cause of the pain by relying on
Characteristics, physical signs, and other accompanying symptoms
Findings on physical examination
Laboratory, radiological, and endoscopic testing

As previously mentioned, the discomfort of irritable bowel syndrome is due either to abnormal intestinal muscle contractions or visceral hypersensitivity. Generally, abnormal muscle contractions and visceral hypersensitivity are much more difficult to diagnose than other diseases or other health conditions, particularly since there are no typical abnormalities on physical examination or the usual diagnostic tests. The diagnosis is based on the history (typical symptoms) and the absence of other cause.

Foods, natural remedies, and OTC treatments for certain causes of abdominal pain

If you aren’t sure if you need to seek medical advice for belly pain,

Common home remedies and over-the-counter (OTC) medicines include:

Eat less food
Take small amounts of baking soda
Use lemon and/or lime juice
Start a BRAT diet (banana, rice, applesauce and toast) for a day or so for symptom relief.
Don’t smoke or drink alcohol.
Taking ginger
Peppermint
Licorice
Chamomile tea
Medications such as bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol), loperamide (Imodium), ranitidine (Zantac) and other over-the-counter substances
Thanks for consult
Regards,
