What Does Fluttering In Stoamch While Having IBS Mean?

Hi, My stomach is acting weirdly. It is kindof fluttering, kindof turning on the right hand side of my body above the lower stomach. This has been going on for at least a week throughout the day in uncommon intervals. I do have IBS but this has lasted longer than anything I have experienced. It almost goes thump thump thump thump thump and then stops.

Hello,

Irritable Bowel Syndrome itself causes increased bowel movements which may lead to fluttering sensation. Along with that food, alcohol or caffeinated drinks may aggravate the problem.

Excessive stress also may aggravate the problem. Other possibilities like abdominal wall muscle contraction seen in spasm of muscles in hypokalemia or excessive abdominal crunches work out et cetera.

Avoid spicy food, alcohol, smoking and caffeinated drinks. Use tablet Normaxin twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
