Suggest Medication For Abdominal Pain

My mom hit her head hard yesterday, and has had a stomach ache since. She didn t even realize her head hurt until I jokingly massaged her head. She has a small bump but no visible blood or bruising that I noticed. She compared her stomach ache to hunger pains she had when she was pregnant with my brother (which isn t the case here). Her period recently passed a few days ago. She was scared about it being a concussion, but she s not dizzy or at loss of memory. What could be wrong?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.The most probable reason I can think of is Irritable Bowel Syndrome which got instigated by the head injury, causing an anxiety . This is most probably be covert / occult.
Get her a few antispasmodic tablets to settle the abdominal pain. IF the motions have smell or are too loose, she can certainly take antibiotics.
Since there is no concussion or vomiting nothing to worry about the head injury. Yet it is advisable to get her examined clinically and get a CT scan of the brain.
