Detailed Answer:
Dear Madam,

Thank you for posting your query on HCM.

Well looking into your query I will like to tell you that the symptoms that you are telling are common for many stomach disorders so for establishing a diagnosis investigations are required.

I will suggest you to get USG Abdomen , stool r/m done to look for any pathology.Since you dont report any weight loss , blood in stools , fever so the problem will not be worrisome .

There is a high probability of IBS (Irritable bowel Syndrome) but all other causes have to be excluded before reaching to this diagnosis.

Take care.

Dr. Shruti
