Abdominal Vibration, No Pain. Cause?

Today I began experiencing a vibration sensation (like a cell phone) in my lower left abdomen. I've looked online and there are hundreds of posts about this symptom but no answers as to what it might be. They are intermittent but feel exactly like a cell phone is going off and laying on your stomach. No pain but extremely bizarre symptom. What could be causing this? Thank you.

Hello,

It could be an exaggerated bowel movement may be due to constipation.

Some form of intestinal obstruction may all present like this.

If the pain is very severe than you may take

1. Erect X ray of the Abdomen to rule out any perforation.

2. Ultrasound of the Abdomen

Consult your doctor.

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Your symptom of vibration could be due to abdominal muscle contraction causing vibration like feeling could be due to exposure to cold or stress.
Or could be due increased intestinal movements, Get USG abdomen done.
Consult your doctor for examination and management.
