Is it common to have abdominal pain when you have a low back disc rupture?

---

Can low back disc pains cause abdominal pain? Or would it be 2 different things going on?
Very possible. But abdominal pain can also radiate to the back (as is the case with a number of abdominal disease processes, I would recommend consulting your GP (or Orthopedic specialts if you are already under his care for the disk problem)

It is common for Sacral-Lumbar muscle pain to slowly involve the abdominal complex of muscles if allowed to weaken with the back. If you have a prolapsed disk, similar pain can ensue. And of course you may not be using core muscles as much due to the pain you have. They slacken and cause more muscular pain.

Once you have ruled out abdominal pathology for your pain, discuss with your physician exercises that can increase your core strength. This might be the best way to bring everything back into line and attenuate you discomfort.  (+ info)

How do i get rid of an abdominal pain?

---

I just started having an abdominal pain a few minutes ago. I haven't had abdominal pain in quite a while. It's been a really long time. But it just came right now. What do i do to help it get better?
What side and what area is the pain?
Anything could be wrong that can cause abdominal pain. Is it upper right, lower right, upper left, lower left?
Do you have a fever with this?
Depends on where it is and what's causing it. If you're possibly pregnant it could be that or if it's on one side it could be ectopic pregnancy (go to e.r.), ovarian cysts (see doctor), appendicitis (go to e.r.), gallbladder (go to e.r. or doctor), gas pains (take antigas), stomach problem or acid in there (see doctor), could be overgrowth of bacteria in there that can be fatal (see doctor and may need e.r.). It could even be menstrual cramps but unless you post back with where you're hurting it's hard to guess and no one can really diagnose on the Internet. Eating something if you have a life threatening situation is not a good idea. I had an intestinal infection and didn't know until I got seen by a gastroenterologist who gave me antibiotics and something for the bowel cramping. I initially thought ovarian cyst, dr. thought appendix, and then other doctor found it to be an intestinal infection and told me it would have been fatal had I not gone in. If you edit your post with additional information I can give you more info and possibilities but I would see your doctor if the pain is severe.  (+ info)

What is the relationship between STD’s and abdominal pain?

---

What about an STD would cause abdominal pain? Is this a serious sign? Why or why
not?
Chlamydia and Gonorrhea can cause abdominal pain. While these STDs are completely curable with antibiotics, they can also cause serious health issues if left untreated - so it is important to get tested and treated if necessary.

If you are unsure of what you may have been exposed to, and have had unprotected sex (vaginal, anal or oral) it is recommended that you complete a full panel of STD tests, as you cannot diagnose yourself on symptoms alone. Most of the time, STDs are completely free of symptoms.

Question on abdominal pain and varying temperature of the body?

---

Hi! We do not have health insurance right now and my daughter has severe abdominal attacks. For two years, we have wasted a lot of time and money on doctor visits that have not helped my daughter.

Recently she had another abdominal attack, related to her cycle. She gets them so bad that she ends up doubling over in pain, and often gets headaches and throws up. What's worse is that she's extremely allergic to ibuprofen and/or Motrin, and Pamprin. She's also allergic to citric acid and most fragrances.

Another issue that we recently discovered is that when she gets these pains, her abdomen gets really cold while the other parts of her body is warmer, or sometimes it's the opposite situation (abdomen extremely warm, but the rest of the body is cold).

She's been to several doctors and has even had an ultrasound and gall bladder study. All show nothing is wrong. The attacks last up to 2 to 4 hours and then afterwards she feels fine. Any suggestions?
Excately what would happen to me for years!!!! And trust me, it is PAINFUL. There is really nothing that can be done by doctors if she is allergic, except to give birth (now I have a three year old, and since I gave birth, No Pain). However I did notice that something did help with the pain. Before the period starts, have your daughter take an enema. Sometimes the gas that is built up in the intestines contributes to the menstrul pains. It helped me a lot. Good luck and tell her that somebody out there knows what she is going through and sympathizes.  (+ info)

What are some of the causes of abdominal pain?

---

My daughter has been complaining of abdominal pain for over a week. I took her to the emergency room and the doctor said she was constipated and gave her an enema. She was fine for two days and now says her stomach hurts again. She says the pain is right behind her navel. Could it be her appendix? Or maybe a hernia? She was born with navel hernia, but it went away when she was a year old. Could it have come back?
Constipation has an easy cure. Adding 30 % fiber to the diet, will take care of it. Vegetables and fruits are a good source of fiber, as is Raisin Bran Cereal for breakfast. If her problem still persists. then have her see a Doctor to check out the appendix or the possible hernia,  (+ info)

Is it okay to take any pain medication if you are having severe abdominal cramps due to miscarriage?

---

Last week, at my 7w4d ultrasound, they could not find anything in the sac and was told I would probably miscarry. I have another appt tomorrow morning to be sure, but am having severe abdominal cramping, almost unbearable. I am pretty sure I am about to miscarry, is there any pain medication I can take?
I would take a pain pill if i were in your sitiuation and i have been. I know how that pain feels.
I took Lorcet while i was hurting but when they admitted me to the hospital they gave me demerol so i think it would be fine. It will not hurt to take a couple or a few until you go to the doctor. It would be different if you took a handful but i dont think it will hurt anything. Take motrin along with whatever type of pain killer you have or can get.  (+ info)

What can cause abdominal swelling and pain?

---

I have had constant pain in the abdomen for about 2 days. It started with lower abdominal pain then fainting and vomiting... that subsided... then the pain turned to stabbing pains, then I had stomach spasms, I went to the doctor that is what they said they were..... Now it's a day later and I have abdominal swelling (all over abdominal region, which is twice as large as usual) and pain (lower pain), it's hard to walk and stand up straight, what could this be, should I be conserned ? (I can't go to the dr untill tomorrow)
These symptoms could be due to (partial) small bowel obstruction. Other (and less concerning causes) are of course also possible.

You have swelling and also had vomiting and fainting. There are a few potential causes of bowel obstruction. What is typically done first are some routine labs and an abdominal plain radiograph (x-ray) to look for any distended loops of bowel and air-fluid levels. Sometimes, a CT of the abdomen and pelvis is also performed. Bowel obstruction is a potentially serious problem and its suspicion would justify making an emergency room visit. Based on the limited information you provided, there is not much else that I can say.  (+ info)
