Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have persistent pain and spasms in abdomen. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like constipation , diarrhea , gastroenteritis , acid reflux , vomiting , kidney infection , stress or IBS . I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order ultrasound , CT scan , stool test and endoscopy . Doctor may prescribe omeprazole , ornidazole , laxative along with analgesic . Doctor may also refer you to urologist for UTI . For now take light and non spicy food , take antiacid after every meal , take small and frequent meals and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
