Severe Stomach Ache. Hands And Lower Arms Completely Numb, Cramped And Stiff. Suggestion

today I had an extremely bad stomach ache.The stomach ache was really severe, i was crying in pain. I also had one strange symptom: my upper body and face, particularly my hands and lower arms, went completely numb. My hands had no feeling whatsoever, and were cramped into one position (like a 'claw' shape, with my fingers stuck straight). They were completely stiff and I had trouble moving them.

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for choosing H.C.M.Forum.
You had severe stomach pain, crying in pain, upper body and face hands and lower arms completely numb, they were stiff anf difficult to move.
Your quiry is missing where is the pain, which gives us the diagnosis, if it is upper in the upper abdomen it may be of gastric pain due to peptic ulcer, or diet rich in irritant foods. gall bladder pain, or pancriatic pain, or kidney pain.
If middle part may be urinary tract infection, or stones in the kidney, upper uriter, or worms in the intestines.
If in the lower abomen lower urinary tract infection, or stones in the lower uriter, or bladder, or pelvic infection.Numb ness may be common with any severe pain.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have M.R.I., besides other routine tests for confirmation.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
Best regards.
