What Causes Stomach Pain Accompanied With Stomach Gas?

My daughter, (42) is experiencing stabbing stomach pain accompanied with gas & explosive diarrhea. She s a dietician & has kept a food diary for a month to see if any food may be the culprit. According to her, there is no correlation between whT she eats, doesn t eat, time of the month, or stress levels. I m curious to know if it could be endometriosis related. I & paternal grandmother both had hysterectomies becUse of this.

Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

Abdominal pain,gas trouble and diarrhoea could be due to acute gastroenteritis,viral gastroenteritis,diverticulitis etc.

If she is maintaining good diet habit with being dieticians then it is good but here we need to find out the actual cause.

She must undergo routine blood count,electrolytes with clinical examination of abdomen or ultrasound of abdomen.

She will require antibiotics(quinolones or cephalosporins or antiprotozoals etc.) with antiemetic, antispasmodics and antiinflammatories with prebiotics and probiotics.

There might be a need of fluid and electrolyte balance in body.

You must consult gastro physician for immediate treatment,

Regards,
