What Does Abdominal Pain On The Left Side Indicate?
Yes. I have pain in my left side. Below the navel. It started about 3 hours ago. I took 2 gas x pills. I ve had two BMW since it started, it was painful to push. Many years ago I had similar pains I went to the doctor for, had an ultrasound only to find it was a bad case of gas. It took about 6 hours to relieve itself. I m wondering if it could be the same thing.

Hello,
Some advice that I can give you is:
- Avoid chewing gum
- Limit your intake of carbonated drinks
- Avoid foods that cause gas, such vegetables in the cabbage family, dried beans, and lentils
- Eat slowly and avoid drinking through a straw
- Use lactose-free dairy products (if you are lactose intolerant)
- Use Simethicone medication
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
