Brief Answer:
Probably bloating, kindly more details are needed.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

There are many medical conditions related to your symptoms.

One of the possible causes can be bloating.

I would like to have more information to help me through the diagnosis.

Do you have constipation or diarrhea?

Is the symptom of stomach contraction temporary or permanent?

Do you have blood in stool?

I would also recommend to do an abdominal ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis.

Meanwhile, I recommend taking Buscopan 10 mg three tablets a day.

I also recommend taking daily probiotics and drinking a lot of liquids.

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