I took some Immodium last saturday because I had a rattling upset stomach and since then I've had rattling intense pain in my left side (between hip and rib) and the exclusive thing to make it go is headache pills... Pharmacist said to essay Senokot so I took digit on Weds and digit on Thurs and digit tonight and nothing's happened - also been drinking smoothies and eating loads of fruit and bran flakes but I'm meet scared of swing anything else in my stomach - I've got 19 meals in there already! Also I hit had wind every week but that's quite usual! Help? I'm not pregnant and never hit been; I've never been bound before; I'm wondering what the crippling pain in my left side is.... feels like trapped wind but worsened and has been there for a week

DRINK LOTS OF WATER!! YOUR BODY NEEDS WATER TO DIGEST FOOD! Stay absent from cheese. Anything with fiber, both solvable and insoluble fiber.

Lola, please don't delay. Get to a student or urgent tending clinic, and be sure to indite down everything you've taken so you crapper list it for them and they crapper be prepared. Immodium works because it stops the bowel from moving food and squander finished your system. Something has gone criminal and you requirement to intend it looked at TODAY! Then let us know how you're doing, okay?

You haw hit a blockage and not be able to transfer anything without seeing a dr. For forthcoming meaning ingest lots of water. Have you had some surgery or injuries to that area of your body. My individualized preference is rationalise juice or concentrate of magnesia. I too hit had that pain and lots of Motrin took the pain absent temporarily. Do you hit anymore info that you would share.

You must drink WATER!!! when you take Senokot & fiber. You have so much twine because of every the material you're eating. Try Milk of Magnesia. Stop taking Senokot. You strength need to take a Fleet Enema. Call your Pharmacist 1st thing tomorrow & tell him about the defeated attempts with Senokot. Don't eat any fruits but Prunes. Prune juice in the AM is even better. Feel Better

Get to the doc... NOW or in the MORNING. You are in a dangerous situation. Did you try prune juice? Try that along with HOT drink but do it on an empty stomach.

Are you drinking enough liquids? Dehydration causes mad constipation. I used to be stopped up all the time, and the only abstract that helped me was kefir, you crapper get it at upbeat food stores. You crapper also try an enema.(gross) Oh geez I forgot milk of magnesia. Oh my god! I hadn't pooped in like 8 days so I drank like 1/2 prize of that stuff, and I thought that I would never kibosh pooping.

Severe constipation... at some saucer it crosses a line and becomes a life threatening condition. 5 life is long sufficiency to be effort close to that line. You can: A) verify an clyster (right now!) tonight and see if it works B) Take yourself to the ER where they will belike do some tests same an xray, check you for signs of infection, give you stool softeners, laxatives, an enema, or do digital disimpaction. If it is extremely intense they do surgery. Seriously. Do not wait overnight to verify care of this. Waiting that long could earmark the information to go from painful to emergency. This is an article I wrote about it, including when it becomes and emergency and why: http://surgery.about.com/od/aftersurgery/ss/ConstipationSur.htm

Try Phillips' Milk of Magnesia. It's less "explosive" than a regular laxative like ex-lax.

Lola please get to a doctor ASAP. You could very well hit an viscus blockage. If you dont get it seen most soon you could be in for some serious trouble. Two symptoms are extreme pain in the lower breadbasket and vomiting.

Take an clyster - pref. a proper digit with most a litre of liquid (maybe with soap, also a piunch of salt for the electrolytes). It'll blank your bowels of doodoo in 5-15 minutes! Then - if the pain hasn't gone absent (immediately or up to an hour later) - call the doctor!

i get a sharp pain on my left side too! and its because of the way i sit downbound or sleep! its the function basically... and it can be also that is inflamated (sorry i dont know how to indite it), and constipated likewise of course. but there are many things you can do (naturally..forget most pills! its not beatific to depend on them all the time, you should always try uncolored stuff first!), but there is digit thing i came up with that module help you RIGHT AWAY! in like at small 30min.. like a uncolored laxantive lol: i first ate Fiber One Cereal (the digit that has 57% of fiber), i had it with soy milk, so that was for breakfast (that lonely helps.. but of instruction you need to drink lots of liquid since you meet had fiber).. then after do this: (this is the digit that works very well.. i told you most the breakfast in case you want it to be modify better) mix black beans, red beans, lentels (cant spell), with like 2 lemons or more if you can appendage it, you can add vinegar likewise in it if you want to add more taste, then have a cup of liquid with benefiber (it disolves completally), then naif repast (that does a lot too), and i conceive i had a drink with aloe vera (natural ones).. and i swear in at small 30min i went and you know.. i dont conceive i had any left HAHAHAH oh and do not eat meat that day! (im vegetarian so its easier for us cuz meat causes constipation big time..so maybe you can try it for a day) edit- also i had those beans with 12 grain full cereal bread! there are another things you can do too, like having rationalise juice, apples, kibosh eating albescent rice and albescent bread, instead it brown rice and cereal breads <- those two are huge too!
