What Could Moving Knot In Stomach Causing Pain Suggest?
my wife has been having stomach issues for mths now. no matter how many salads she eats or fiber stuff she takes, nothing helps. She will take a laxative and get sick. she has a knot that moves around in her stomach and hurts her when she pushes on it. What should I do?

Hi.
Since your wife is having a palpable knot in the abdomen which pain on pressing on it, she needs investigations :
Physical examination by a General Surgeon.
Ultrasonography of the abdomen.
X-ray of the abdomen in standing position
Enteroclysis / Barium studies.
Exploratory Laparaoscopy and procedure as required.
