Comes with constipation and bloating and gas and some burping. I think it is sometimes helped if I eat but not totally sure on that. Pain lasts about 2 to 3, hours. Constipation is mostly constant. I feel like I need to go to the bathroom but can t or only a small amount. Pain starts to radiate out after about an hour into an episode . Any help would sure be appreciated. Thank you. YYYY@YYYY

General & Family Physician, Dr. Purva Patel's Response

Hi,

This sounds to be acute abdomen condition and most common cause of narrated site pain is appendicitis, though other reasons as terminal ileal inflammation, a loaded colon can be part of the differential diagnosis.

I recommend a visit to ER for immediate therapy, diagnosis with CT abdomen and definite curative management before it flares up.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Purva Patel, General & Family Physician
