What Causes Spasms In The Upper Abdomen In The Center?

Hi I am experiencing spasms in my upper abdomen in the center. If I turn to pick up something or use muscle to do anything this is when I experience it. Also, I had a c-section last year and it seems my stomach hasn t felt normal since then. Wondering if this is normal from the surgery or something else like pancreas spasms?

* As per my clinical experience, there can be various reasons for pain in upper abdomen as



- Stomach problems with gastritis, indigestion or others

- Intestine motility related issues

- Internal adhesion from previous surgery

- Pancreas, bile drainage system disturbances

* In our clinic, I provide patient primary relief with anti spasmodic, antacids and later evaluate for the underlying cause as per the clinical concern with ultrasound or CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis.
