Suggest Remedy For Abdominal Pain

my mum has been complaining of abdominal pain for a few months now, however, recently it has become worse. Today she was in utter agony, i asked her what it feels like and she said like bricks in her stomach area. She indicated that today the pain originally started around her left hip but has extended beyond that, around her back and front as well as further up, as far as her ribs. She is now refusing to go to hospital. I don't know whether she needs to or not. Please help, I am very concerned

Hi.
This is a common sense that when mother is suffering from such an agony - pain in abdomen for the last few months and now has worsened, you have to take her to the hospital for a clinical examination, investigations of blood, urine and stool. CT scan of the abdomen and whatever will be advised on physical examination by a General Surgeon .
Sh e needs to be admitted and investigated and surgery if required may be planned.
