Need Medication For Abdominal Pain On The Left Side
I'm having abdominal pain that starts on my left side and spreads across my stomach to the right side. I am post menopausal so it's not related to that. It started about 2 weeks ago and has increased some. It's not constant but it does hurt daily. What do you think?

HI. As per the history you provided this looks to me a case of colitis and /or enteritis.
What are your associated symptoms?
How is the stool- loose, sticky, bloody ?
ant associated nausea , vomiting , fever , weakness or so.
I think a course of an antibiotic along with metronidazole and antispasmodic like dicyclomin for a 5 day course should solve the problem.
Please let me know more about other symptoms if you have
Dr T Chandrakant.
