Question : I've been feeling a lot of pain recently in my stomach. At first, it felt like being pricked by a needle and it'd happen all over my stomach. Then the pain started to last longer and stay in a singular area of my stomach. It's currently in the upper left part of my stomach. At first, I thought it was gas related so I started taking gas x but it didn't help. One other symptom is I'm constipated. Is this something gas related or is it something more serious like an ulcer or worse? If so, what should I do?

Brief Answer:
Your pain is very likely due to constipation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your query and here is my opinion.

Your pain is very likely due to constipation.

Due to irregular bowel habits,there can be abdominal pain,retching,abdominal fullness,belching and bloating.
These symptoms are due to residual food fermentation and release of gases.

You should keep yourself well hydrated,take large amount of fiber including raw vegetables and fruits,be physically active,de stress yourself and don't be sleep deprived.
Take lukewarm water early morning.
Avoid junk food,fatty,greasy and gassy meals.
You can also take lactulose 3 to 6 TSF at night to relieve constipation.

Hope that I have answered your query.
Stay healthy and stay blessed.
Regards.
