How Can Painful Stomach Cramps With Umbilicus Area Pain Be Treated?
Hi, My symptoms are very painful stomach cramps....reminding me a bit of labor contractions as they come on and grow to a peak before fading away. The pain ranges from relatively bearable to grip-the-table severe, and is located just around or above belly button. I've had this for 4 days. Bowels seem only slightly affected - no diarrhea. Thanks for your help.

Hello,
It is possible an intestine infection.
Tips at present are:
- Liquids consumption at its best
- All dietary precautions must be practiced strictly.
Intake of PPI as pantoprazole, anti-spasmodic medicines require prescription with your doctor. Later on blood test or ultrasound may be required in some cases.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
