Mid-stomach Pains, Weird Bowel Movements With Green Stools, Vomiting Sensation On Not Taking Proper Food. Cause?
I m a female teenager and I m not on my period. I have mid stomach pains that are extremely sharp but they come and go and aren t constant. Also, my bowl movements are weird. When I poop it feels like I m peeing and my poop ranges from being clear like water, to being greenish brown as if I have diarrhea . I feel like I m going to throw up at time but I never vomit . I drink water everyday and I don t drink pop or other sugary drinks usually. When I don t eat, I have these symptoms, but when I do eat, these symptoms appear as well and usually my stomach pain is worse. Even if I m eating healthy food, such as fruit or anything. I have taken 400 mg of Ibuprofin for the past 2 days at school which helps my stomach pain until the drugs wear off. I ve been having these symptoms for about a week. What s wrong with me?

Hello!
Thank you for the query.
Your symptoms are most likely caused by gastrointestinal infection. It can be due to some foods intake contaminated by bacteria. Due to pathological bacteria presence your intestines get irritated what can cause all mentioned by you symptoms.
That is why, the first thing you should do is to start probiotic intake. Stool tests should be done and proper antibiotic prescribed.
If no infection will be found, colonoscopy should be the next step to rule inflammatory bowels diseases out.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
