Pain In The Stomach After Eating, Bloated. Worried About Having Colon Cancer
well, for over a year now every time i eat my stomach hurts and for the past month my stomach has been bloated out and is very soar and its hard (like what men look like when they look like their pregnant) and right at the very top of my stomach ( right under by breasts ) it hurts to push on it, i always had problems with bowel movements but now i have not had a bowel movement in 2 0r 3 days now and i scared because i'm always bloated out and its sore and hurts to be pushed on that i have stomach cancer or colon cancer, i cant stop thinking about it and i'm always pushing in on my stomach to see if it still hurts

Dear Sir,
Sorry to hear about your problem. If this bloating sensation is of recent onset, it needs to be evaluated by a gastroenterologist and you need to under go an upper GI endoscopy to rule out any problem in your stomach.
In addition, you should take in a high roughage diet, so that your bowel habits are regularised. Irregular bowel habits can be another cause of bloating.
Hoping for the best.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
You need an ultrasound to look at the gall bladder / Upper GI Endoscopy to look at the oesophagus, stomach and duodenum / Lower GI endoscopy to look at the Colon
In the mean time, Proton Pump Inhibitors / Pro-kinetic agents / anti-flatulents / lactulose can help
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
