What Could Be The Reason For Bad Stomachache Only When Am Out Of The House?

I ve been having bad stomach aches but they re only when I m out like at school or church. It feels like a gas pain but they come and go and I don t know why. I went to my doctor and she didnt give me a direct answer. My mom says its in my head but its really not.

It is possible that condition is what is known as "psychogenic", or caused by your psychology, most notably experiences such as stress. Are you nervous when out and about or in public? Do you have any feelings of anxiety or mental discomfort in theses situations? This is my first thought, as you express traveling to a great many locations, many of which would likely not contain the same factor causing you discomfort. Please let me know if this has helped and we can work together to hone in on exactly what is causing you the abdominal pain.
