Suggest Treatment For Lower Abdominal Pain And Stomach Bloating
Have severe lower abdo pain , feel bloated & thrush like symptoms- ( too sore for Dr to examine ) - bloods show not hormones / type 2 diabetes etc all ok - had external/ internal scan nothing found but said no thrush - swabs also taken ( no sexual activity for years ) - only relief is salt baths. Have an appointment with GP next week but any idea what I could take to give me relief - using Canistan cream & yoghurt ,tried taking ibuprofen & paracetamol / Gaviscon but no different ( GP did give Canistan tablet which gave relief for a day ) .

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of lower abdominal pain and stomach bloating. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like irritable bowel syndrome , intolerance to dairy products or other food items , eating too fast , overgrowth of bacteria in the small bowel , giardiasis or some medications. Need not to worry. You should avoid intake of sharp spicy and outside food. I would suggest you to avoid food like dairy products , drink warm water and do light exercises and eat light and non spicy food. If condition doesn't get well then consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe H2 blockers , proton pump inhibitor along with antibiotics and anti inflammatory.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
