What is the cause and cure of gripey pain in stomach ?
Patient: Hello I have a gripey pain in my lower stomach right in the centre as low as poss before you reach the pelvic bone . Not sure if it s gynae or bowel related sort of feels like a mixture of the two. For the last couple of weeks me, my parnter and I have had mild runny tummys. The kind that dont really feel that bad and you just get on with things. I now have less of a runny tummy but this gripey feeling is different. When i go to the loo as a result of the feeling the pain gives me I dont have diahorrea but I do go. I also have been feeling hot and sweaty.
