What Causes Lower Abdominal Pain Along With Intestinal Bloating?
I have been experiencing stomach pain in the lower abdomen for the past week. It started in my lower right and felt like a muscle strain that didn t go away. Now it has jumped more towards the middle of my stomach and is a heavy bloating uncomfortable feeling. I don t think it is an appendicitis - no fever, no sharp pains, but just an uncomfortable pain - sometimes above my naval and than moves below. Thinking I have irritable bowel syndrome or an ovary cyst. Thoughts?

Hello,
The symptoms can be related to irritable bowel syndrome. To exclude the possibility of an ovarian cyst, I recommend to do an abdominal ultrasound. Meanwhile, I suggest using Simethicone medication three times a day to relieve the bloating. I also recommend to use a fiber supplement and a probiotic to help with the intestinal symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
