What Causes Abdominal Pain?

Hi, I have been having really bad abdonimal pain since Fri. It feels like my whole abdomen is swelling and my stomach gets tender. I was feeling better w/ alkasers, but it that is no longer working. Should I seek medical attention? The pain sometimes centralizes on the right side and becomes quite tender.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Since there is centralization of the pain on the right side and there is bloating you should seek Doctor's attention for clinical evaluation and physical examination.
You have tenderness.
I would advise you the following:
Ultrasonography of the abdomen
X-ray of the abdomen in the standing position.
Tests of the stool, urine and blood.
The treatment will obviously based on the tests.

I find this answer helpful
