What Could Be The Reason For Gripping Intermittent Pain In Abdomen And Persistent Headaches?
I am a 53 year old female who has developed a gripping intermittent pain in the left side of my abdomen. It is worse on movement and when I breath deeply. I am constipated and having difficulty in passing wind. I also feel generally unwell and have a persistent headache. This has been going on for approx 2 days.

Hi and Welcome to HCM,
Do you have step ladder type of temperature? Do you have nausea, vomiting? Please check blood widal test. It may be due to enteric fever. If you dont have temperature you can rule out. Do ultrasound and chest x-ray. This may also occurs in abdominal aneurysm, food poisoning, premenstural syndrome. Detailed assessement is necessary with doctor.
Wish you speedy recovery
Thank you
