How Can Constipation And Lower Stomach Ache Be Treated?
I am having sharp pains in my lower stomach with constipation. I feel as I have to have a bowel movement, but when I attempt to there seems to be a blockage as I have nothing more than a little gas. Could this be irritable bowel syndrome? I have colonoscopies every 2 years due to a family related illness so I know it cannot be colon cancer. Thank you for your time.
