What Causes Stomach Ache?

I'm a female and I'm almost 18.(165 cm and 55 kg)
I've been having stomach pain for more than a year, it comes and goes. it's mostly in the morning.. i've had many tests like blood test and colons-copy and other things and there's nothing wrong with my body so my doctor gave me medications for stomach nerves and stress but it didn't help me. could this pain be related to something else i need to test?

Hi ! Good eveining. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

I would first advise you not to eat from outside if you do, which might be inducing intestinal infection by ingestion of food made in not a very hygienic condition. If I were your doctor, I would go for a routine stool test for ova and cyst and a culture sensitivity test, and prescribe you with an appropriate anti biotic/anti parasitic drug.

I would also like to go for a urine routine/microscopic/culture sensitivity test to rule out a silent unsuspecting UTI (urinary tract infection) and treat it accordingly. You have not mentioned anything about your sexual status, that is if you are active in sex. In that case you might have to be assessed by a gynaecologist for a possible unsuspected pelvic infection. I am not aware if an ultrasound of abdomen was done for you or not. If not, this test might prove to be helpful in treating your pain abdomen. Till then you could take some anti spasmodic drug for a symptomatic relief.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
