What Causes Recurring Abdominal Pain And Gas Formation Sensation?

Hi, Murali Here, I am suffering from abdominal pain from last 4 months. Occurs once twice in months and stays for 3 to 4 days. When its there it makes me wake up at night.
Currently from last 10 days I am taking Pataprazol 40mg daily. Still the pain and gas formation sensation is there.

Hi,

The pain you are having might be related to too much gas accumulating inside your bowels. I suggest to start taking simethicone for gas and probiotics to optimize intestinal flora.

If your abdominal pain is also associated with changes in bowel movements, I suggest to get your stool examined for ova/parasites and cultured too. Abdominal ultrasound is necessary to rule out abdominal pathologies.

It will take few days to get the symptoms relieved. If within a month after starting the medications, you will still have the pain, then, abdominal Ct-scan might be needed for further evaluation.
