What Could Be The Cause Of Intermittent Abdominal Pain?

I have been having abdominal pain that comes and goes. My appetite is not affected and there are no irregularities in stool or any other symptoms. It seems as though it came on after ingesting a large amount of fiber and gaseous food. The pain is intense for short periods of time then it subsides.

Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

If I were your doctor, I would advise you for an ultrasound abdomen, along with a serum lipase and amylase estimation, and liver function test. Also avoid alcoholic drinks and smoking if you do. Till the reports come, I would advise you for some anti acid, and anti spasmodic drug. Further management would depend on your investigations.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
