What Could Be The Cause For Lower Abdominal Pain That Radiates Down Inner Thigh With IBS ?
I have IBS and I also seem to have lower abdominal pain that sometimes radiates down my inner thigh.
Deal with constipation on and off, mostly on which seems to have a gel type of discharge at times and lately a tinge
of brownish red haloing the stool. I have just noticed this. Pain at times almost feel like menstral cramps and
I am way past that time of my life. Had a colonoscopy 1and 1/2 years ago and all was fine. Just had an ultrasound done of bladder, kidneys and that was fine except there was a little cyst but ok. I realize that stress is huge these days
for most of us, I'm no exception . Trying to keep that under control. In the meantime these spasms seem to come and go but have been more frequent lately. Suggestions please?????

HI. Yes the stress part of life has a direct bearing with your IBS. The pain in the right side of the abdomen radiating to inner thigh is usually due to nearness of the nerves supplying thigh to the lower abdominal contests, which on inflammation can give a radiating pain. As your ultrasonography is normal for urinary tract the suspicion of right urinary tract giving right thigh pain is a remote possibility. I hope you are under medicines for your IBS.
