What Could Cause Severe Lower Abdominal Cramping Followed By Diarrhea?

I have a question. The past few days I have been having severe lower abdominal cramping followed by diarrhea. I haven t changed my diet or anything like that and I have been gassy too. When I get the severe cramping it comes on very fast not just gradually.

HI. This most probably is due to infection in the intestines. Is there associated nausea and vomiting , distension or bloating ? I would advise to go for an antibiotic course and supportive medicines as advised your Doctor.
