Any doctors here who can help me with my stomach problem?


Question:
A week ago I felt a sharp pain in my lower stomach. Then for 2 days I had a constant pain in my stomach. Kinda like a crampy and sometimes sharp pain. Now, a week later pain is minor, it comes and goes away, but my stomach is feeling like its rumbling on the left bottom side, to the left of my belly botton. I feel the rumbling especially in the morning when I wake up. And also my stomach feels bloated. I dont have diarrhea or anything. I was wondering what this could be. I researched on the internet and found irritable bowel syndrome (irs) and i wondered if this is it. I am 16 year old male. Anyone know what this could be?

Answer:
It could be irritable bowel, however, there are many, many more details that are needed to even make a guess at your diagnosis. Things like: is there blood in your stool? Is there blood that you can't see (occult) that a doctor tested for? What makes the pain better or worse (eating, laying a certain way)? Have you ever had abdominal surgery in the past? Are you flatulent (is gas passing normally)? Plus a myriad of others. A physical exam would help too.

Sorry, but the topic is too big to guess at this forum. Please see your doc again. Best of luck.
