Having Painful And Sharp Stomach Ache, Feels Dizzy, Weakness In Muscle. What Treatment Should Be Done?
I was standing up and suddenly felt sharp pains in my stomach , I then stretched it out and it went away for a few seconds, suddenly it came right back and I started getting extremely dizzy, and my muscles felt weak, I felt as if I was going to faint. I quickly sat on the floor in preparation of falling, then the dizziness went away and muscles became normal. The cramps in my stomach are still there - it is located near my hips, on my lower abdomen/ pelvis and are extremely painful and sharp. I am a 17y.o male.

Hi,
the sdden pain in stomach caused a vasovagal attack associated with fainting.
You did the right thing by sitting ,better would have been to lie down .
the cramps and pain as described may be due to some urinary stone ,may be due to infection .
please consult surgeon and get a clinical examination .Investigations to be done as advised .an urine examination,u s g of abdomen .plain x-ray abdomen will be helpful
for the pain at present you can take some anti spasmodics like dicyclomine tablets like decolic tab.
But proper treatment to take after a diagnosis is made
Hope you be all right soon .
