Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Does An Umbilical Hernia Cause Severe Abdominal Cramps?
Hello My adult daughter is having horrendous abdominal cramps. Has pooped diahrea,threw up and is curled up on the floor. She says she has a hernia starting near her belly button, which is where the cramping is. Could the hernia have anything to do with thi. Also, she had some fried green beans & the oil was old & dark.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* As per the narration and my clinical experience co relation, the current condition narrated is due to intestine infection from fried beans and contaminated oil with some bacteria inside.
* A developing hernia in umbilicus is less likely to give rise to sudden acute pain with vomiting and diarrhea (if it is very large then there can be chances of obstruction or strangulation of the abdomen contents otherwise not ).
Hope this clears your query
Wishing you fine recovery
