Stomach cramp won't go away.?


You know the abdominal cramp that sometimes comes when running long distances? Recently I have had a similar cramp that doesn't go away. Whenever I walk I immediatly feel pain in the side of my stomach. What could this be?

If you are having any kind of pain that won't go away you should see a doctor.

Something like a hernia or gullbladder isn't life threatening, however without knowing what it is do you really want to take the chance of not seeing a doctor?

What I would do is drink lots of water. If it is a bladder or kidney problem sometimes it will clean itself with lots of water. When I had gullstones, which eventually lead to having my gullbladder removed, drinking water was about the only thing that brought relief.

If it is a hernia, restrain from lifting anything over 5 lbs. I currently have a hyadel hernia (not sure how it is spelled) it is right below the middle of my ribs just around the stomach area. It's not life threatening just bothersome. You can ease that pain by watching what you eat and how much you eat at one sitting. Eat smaller amounts more often rather than a big meal a couple times a day. If you are having acid reflux then it very well could be a hernia.

Otherwise without knowing exactly where and not being a doctor I would suggest seeing a doctor. If you don't have insurance try locating a free or sliding fee clinic in your area.

The website I turn to when I have concerns is www.webmd.com
You may find some answers there. For some ailments they list home remedys to try and suggest if the symptoms get worse or not go away then see a doctor.

My best advice is refrain from spicy foods or eat them in very small quantities. Drink lots of water, and if it doesn't go away see a doctor. If the pain only happens when you walk then you may have pulled something.

After re-reading your post it is kinda confusing as to the location. Is it on your side in the abdominal area? If so it may just be a bladder or kidney infection. Does your urine look cloudy or dark yellow. Healthy urine should be almost clear. Cloudy is indication of infection and dark is indication of lack of dehydration. Either way, drink lots of water and see what happens, if in two days the problem persist or worsens... see a doctor.

iono
but i get that alot only
wen i have my period tho
so i dont noe . . .

A hernia? Maybe you have herniated your diaphragm.... go see a regular doctor. Keep a diary of the food/exercises and pains you have to bring along. This will help him with a proper diagnosis.

You need to see a doctor as soon as you can. Dont freak out or anything but it is only going to get worse. It could either be your apendix and that can arrupt and be deadly....or it could be you have a virual infection and you need special antibiotics for this to get rid of it. its not good for you either way so do go see a doctor as soon as you can. i know becase i have had this happen to me. and it luckily was just a virual infection. but if its your apedix, it could errupt and kill you. so dont freak out or anything, but do see a doctor soon. goodluck, i hope you get well soon.

It could be kidney stones, your appendix or gall stones. Those are guesses. You should see a doctor for sure.

It could be the start of appendicitis I'm not sure but you should see your doctor as soon as you can

It could be a hernia or appendicitis. Go see your doctor soon. That is an order from this nurse!
