Hi ! Good afternoon. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

Do you eat from outside like fast food ? If you do, please avoid eating from outside and eat food cooked hygienically at home. Go for more roughage and enough liquids. If I were your doctor, I would go for a routine stool test for ova and cyst, and treat it if positive.Also an ultrasound abdomen would be helpful in excluding some intra abdominal conditions giving rise to severe pain.

If it persists in spite of treatment, I would refer you to a gastro-enterologist who might go for a colonoscopy for you to arrive at a possible diagnosis for further management.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
