What Causes Pain In The Upper Abdomen During Bowel Movement?

From time to time I will have to have a bowel movement and once it starts my upper belly starts to hurt and then once it begins I start to throw up....My GP sent me to an endocronologist a couple years ago and he did a colonoscopy and endoscope and all he said was I had mild reflux which I have never been bothered with. This has been going on for a number of years and noone seems to have an answer

Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

I understand your problem..
Gastroesophageal reflux disease may cause abdominal pain because of more stomach acid upward flow towards oesophagus.

Consent your gastroenterologist for further treatment.
Avoid citrus ,spicy and too fatty foods.
Drink more water per day..
Avoid alcohol drinking and smoking.

Eat small amount of meal and chew properly.
Avoid immeadiate lying down after meal.

Elevate your head during sleeping.
Proton pump inhibitor drugs helpful in GERD.

Endoscopy examination is helpful for further diagnosis.

I hope my guidance helpful to you..
Take care.
Thank you.
