Dear Ms
Sometimes when there is increased peristaltic activity of intestine, it could like to feeling of knots and cramp like abdominal pain. If there is no associated distension of abdomen, vomiting or constipation then possibility of Intestinal obstruction as cause is ruled out. If there is no such association then there is no cause for concern.
I would suggest you the following
1. Ensure good intake of water: 2 to 3 litre a day
2. High fibre diet
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Take Care
