Question : i have pain in pelvic area only when im dieting and drink more fluid. had my prostate checked in spring. it was normal. when i drinked alot of water i sometimes hear a gurgling sound. I dont seem to have a hernia type lump. but i do feel presure sometimes. I have no pain urinating.

I had the exact symtoms about two years ago. They went away when i went back to regular diet. My diet is meat (turkey chicken) fruits and vegetables

Thank you for asking

i read your question and i understand your concern Diet lifestyle adjustments and excess of fluid intake can sometimes give these gurgling sounds and pressure feeling in abdomen and is alright and nothing to worry about. Eat whatever you want in balanced , just keep the intake of calories less than 3 thousand. This way you can avoid this bowel spasms and pressure fullness feeling. Small frequent meals, avoiding dairy , fatty, spicy, processed and canned meals. More fiber and fluids roughly 3 litres in a day. Use yogurt with peppermint for helping the symptoms.

i hope it helps. take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.

if i press on rgt side, it sometimes will gurgle or squishy sound. after i press the noise goes away. as i said before there is no pertruding lump. sometime i feel a hard ridge. it just seems strange that i have these symtoms only when im trying to lose weight.

Supportive care

Thank you for getting back to me

These gurgling sounds and are likely bowel functional disorder like irritable bowel syndrome and with advancing age, these symptoms flare. Treatment is mostly supporitve with diet lifestyle adjustments. With efforts to lose weight, bowels are empty and empty bowel give borborygmi ( bowel sounds with pain ) normally also called hunger pangs. Just use supportive care with spasm relief and diet lifestyle adjustments and symptoms will improve.

I hope it helps.
