Suggest Remedy For Abdominal Pain With Stomach Bloating

my husband had lap band last year. He is suffering from severe abdominal pain. Says he feels like he's been punched in the stomach. He feels very bloated. This has been going on for about 8 hours now. A lot of pain. Doesn't want to eat or drink as he says it feels worse. Are these signs of complications? What can we do to get him some relief?
