What Does Pain In The Abdomen Indicate?

I am experiencing pain in my abdomen. It comes and goes but is increasing in severity. Pain has been present on and off now for 24 hours. I have some swelling/bloating and no real appetite. Should I be concerned? What can I do to ease the discomfort?

Hello, my name is Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi.
I understand your concern.
Pain in the abdomen can be caused by many factors. It can be due to :
-an infection
-constipation
-cramps
-if you are a woman menstrual cramps etc
I suggest you to do an abdominal ultrasound to rule out any cause of your pain.
Mean while you can use :
-anticholinergic medicine like buscopan 10 mg.It relieves the pain of stomach and bowel cramps by helping your digestive system to relax.
-chamomile tea.
Hope it helps.
Kind regards!
