What Causes Severe Abdominal Pain?

Have a gnawing pain in my stomach for a couple days. No nausea, no constipation, don t feel gassy. Feels like I am starving, although I am eating and should not be hungry at all, and eating has no effect on the pain, which is constant but not always the same intensity. I am a 71 year old male, no history of stomach issues of any kind.

General & Family Physician, Dr. Dr.'s Response

Hello,

It may be several causes.

For further assessment you may require ultrasound abdomen, complete hemogram after physician consultation.

Till then for pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.

Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
