Suggest Treatment For Abdominal Discomfort And Flatulence
I have IBS over the last few years. Although my bowel movements are a lot better over the last year now, I am left with gas pains and abdominal discomfort. I also have radiating pain in my back and stinging pains sometimes in my back and at times in my shoulders and armpits. Did most of the tests CT, endoscopy, UG ultrasound etc and no issues. Wondering how to go about getting better.

IBS can be commonly treated with antispasmodics such as levin, high fiber diet ,probiotics such as align or isync. For more complex symptoms or in responding symptoms you should see a gastroenterologist
Pains in the back shoulders and armpits usually aren't related so you should see your primary care MD about those
