I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
After reading the query, I would like to know the location of the pain in abdomen, and it's association with food intake and spicy food. I would like to say to avoid the spice food and take curd rice. And since it may also be simple acidity, just an antacid may suffice.
Hope I have answered your query.

203 | What causes sharp left sided abdominal pain? | Hi, I’ve been trying to get a diagnosis for what’s going on since November 2017. It started very suddenly on November 11th. It started as dull pain and discomfort on my left side and progressed to more of a sharp pain. I ended up going to the doctor after I had 3 instances where I passed gas and had completely clear, gel like discharge in my pants. One instance there was a circle of this gel stuff that was probably 5 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick. By this point, my stool was completely liquid with mucus or fat init. When I went to my pcp, she thought it was cholitis. She put me on 2 antibiotics, took a stool sample, and referred me to a gastro. The stool sample came back clear.I saw the gastro after I was almost done with the antibiotics. They did a cat scan with contrast. I was told the results were clear. They then performed a colonoscopy, which came back clear as well as the biopsies taken from the colon being clear. At this point, the gastro told me it was ibs. I told him that I was having instances where there were noises in the left side of my abdomen as if someone where overturning a large bottle of water and the large bubbles were rushing up, which was followed by discomfort. I also told him that the issues weren’t accompanied by pain. He tested for celiac, which was negative, He was insistent that it was ibs and wouldn’t test for anything else.I went to another gastro for a 2nd opinion about a month and a half ago and she said she thought it was either post-colitis ibs or SIBO. Instead of waiting for a breath test, she put me on a 2 week round of extremely strong antibiotics. I went back 1 week after finishing the antibiotics due to continued discomfort, brief periods of pain, and mucus. She gave orders for blood tests to test my thyroid and an X-ray to look to see how full my colon is. This was almost 2 weeks ago and I haven’t heard anything.Yesterday morning, I woke up slightly nauseated (for the first time during all of this) and didn’t go to work. I started going to the bathroom frequently around 4:00pm or so. Every time it’s soft, but not liquid, with mucus/fat/bile. At around 9:00pm, I started having sharp pain in my left side. By 2am, it was so painful I almost couldn’t stand straight (I stayed in the living room instead of going to bed because I kept getting up). When I woke up today, it was still painful, but not debilitating, and I was in the bathroom all day again with the same results. As of about 10:00 tonight until now (130a), it’s horrible. Very sharp pain that is radiating to my back and down to my hip. It is almost bad enough that I feel like I should go to the ER, but I don’t even know what they would test for. If they tell me again that it’s just Ibs and they can’t do anything for me, I don’t know what I’ll do. It’s so painful right now and nothing is helping. Does anyone have any idea to what I should test for? I’m desperate. | <start> Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
These symptoms may indicate diverticulitis.For acute phase of the recurrent diverticulitis antibiotic therapy is required but once the acute phase settles down severe and drastic lifestyle modificatory changes have to be followed by the patient for many months to avoid recurrent attacks. So I'm sorry my dear but if you are sure its diverticulitis then broad spectrum antibiotic have to be taken for 5 to 7 days.I would suggest you take Clindamycin 600 mg once daily with Metronidazole 400 mg thrice daily for 5 days.They would cover both bacteria as well as protozoa, however, you would need a prescription for the same as antibiotics are not over the counter.Probiotic etc would help but if its diverticulitis then you have to take antibiotics.

207 | Suggest treatment for gastric pain | Hi, can I answer your health question? Please type your question here...I am unable to eat anything spicy I am suffering from gastric for the last five years only a temporary cure for few days for the medication I have taken was pantodac 40 mg and domperidone | <start> Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
This may be caused by gastritis, GERD or hiatal hernia so you should do gastroscopy to evaluate it more accurately. This is caused by irritation of stomach mucosa by certain food or medications, stress and smoking. SO firstly it should be treated with home remedies and changing dietary habits. You need to avoid fried food, carbonated drinks, coffee, alcohol and spicy food. You should eat more milk products, vegetables and boiled food. Also, certain antiacid medications may be required such as Pantoprasole or Ranitidine. In cases of severe pain, diagnosis should be established with endoscopic tests which include gastroscopy or barium swallow test.

I had the scoping done and the doctor didnt do a novasure she just burned off some areas of the endometriosis she could get to.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I hope that your ultrasound abdomen is normal .
If you have not got ultrasound abdomen done , get it now .

Thanks in advance. | <start> Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
There is no evidence that dietary modifications are helpful in the management of diverticulitis. If you have simple diverticulitis (no abscesses or perforations) or fever, I suggests that you stay on semi-solid foods (soup, yogurt, etc.) for a week or so, and take over-the-counter pain medication, preferably aspirin. To prevent recurrent diverticulitis, I advise a high-fiber diet, and abstinence from smoking and NSAID use. Anecdotally, Rifaximin, which is a locally acting antibiotic that is poorly absorbed from the gut, may provide symptom relief.

241 | What causes abdominal pain on the left side? | Hello. I have had terrible stomach pains for months on the left side of my stomach. The only thing that I can eat is an English muffin and eggs. I have lost a lot of weight. When I eat most other foods I get so sick, that I can not really fully function. Oh yes, I can sometimes eat a banana. This may sound like a very minor problem, but let me assure you it is not. I have been to 2 hospitals and my regular doctor and have gotten no response to the problem or medications. Marlo YYYY@YYYY | <start> Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
With the history your have provided about left sided abdominal pains with inability to eat anything other than English Muffin, eggs and bananas the probable causes can be one or more of the following:Intolerance to other foods thus causing severe pain and obvious weight loss. IBS that is irritable bowel syndrome. Gastritis. Since you have already visited two hospitals I would advise you the following in such a situation: Consult a Gastroenterologist for clinical evaluation and investigations. Upper GI Endoscopy, Colonoscopy, CT scan of abdomen. Tests of stool for 3 days. Tests of blood and urine. Any other tests as would be advised. All these will lead to a proper diagnosis. If the intolerance for food is present then avoiding these is the best way and try for newer foods so that you can have proper foods and nutrition. Take multivitamins and mineral supplements.

I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.• Well, such cramps and pain is nonspecific sign and it is hard to identify just one possible cause, but there are disorders which are more frequent than other and mostly include benign issues. However, some more serious should always be ruled out. These common include trapped wind (flatulence), pain or discomfort after eating (indigestion) or constipation. These can be treated with changed dietary and lifetime habits and rarely require some more specific treatment. In every case you need to watch your diet: You need to avoid fried food, carbonated drinks, coffee, alcohol and spicy food. You should eat more milk products, vegetables and boiled food. If there is no improvement on this or serious symptoms occur such as blood in stool, weight loss or complete constipation with abdominal distension, then you need to see doctor as soon as possible. Otherwise, you can do tests if necessary that include abdominal CT scan and colonoscopy.I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.Kindly regards. Wish you a good health. <end> | Suggest remedy for severe abdominal cramps Last night I started having severe cramps in my lower abdomen everytime I moved on when I got up or set down it felt like someone hitting me in the stomach the rest of the time it was just cramps the only thing that helped was passing gas or a bm it has been almost 24 hrs and it still hurts I have been on a low carb diet for over a wk. |

269 | What causes pain in the navel area radiating to the right side? | HI, for approximately 5 days I have noticed a pain on my right side. It is weird, as it goes from about middle of the inside of my naval to the right in an almost straight line. The entire line (about 3 inches long +) does not ache but rather is a sharp grab when I move in a certain way, laugh hard, etc. Also, the pain is more of a hot burn and a sharp grab,,,,, to the point I would say oh, crap, it stops as soon as I am still. I have no fever, no lack of appetite. I am 57 years old and in good health. High cholesterol and high blood pressure. Thanks for suggestions. | <start> The fact that you have no fever, lack of appetite and are in good health suggests that there is no possibility of any abdominal internal organ ailment. The fact that the discomfort on the right mid abdominal wall occurs when you move in a certain way, laugh suggests that you have due to some reason strained your abdominal wall muscles on the right side. It could have happened while lifting something heavy, or even while just stretching your body. With rest and not straining your abdominal wall muscles, like doing any exercise, lifting something heavy, laughing hard, and the such, the muscles will get rest and in a week to ten days or so you should be relieved of this pain. Even if it takes longer, please give rest to the muscles till complete healing of the muscles to prevent recurrence. It would be good if you could get an abdominal ultrasound examination to rule out any internal organ problem and also diagnose the muscle injury. <end> | What causes pain in the navel area radiating to the right side?
