Suggest Treatment For Lower Abdominal Pain While Raising The Legs

Hi there, I get a pain in my lower abdomen when I sit up or raise my legs, it is stopping me doing most exercise and I ve had it since November. I originally though it was the result of a groin strain playing football but it is as bad now as it was then and won t go away?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of lower abdominal pain while raising the legs . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like consuming foods known to cause gas in some people, such as milk products that contain lactose, broccoli, appendicitis, crohn’s disease, gastroenteritis, irritable bowel syndrome or urinary tract infection. You should consult urologist also for condition like UTI. You should take plenty of fluids. I would suggest you to avoid above mentioned foods , eat light and non spicy specially at night , take light walk after every meal , eat small and frequent meals. If condition doesn't get well then consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order ultrasound , endoscopy along with stool test . Doctor may prescribe laxative , anti inflammatory along with antacids .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
