How can you tell the difference btwn gas pain & something is wrong pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many causes exist: Gas pain is not associated with fever, tends to relieve itself in a few minutes or with bowel movement. Gas pain will usually not have any other symptoms or signs associated with it. Most people that get gas pain have had it before. If this is the first time you are having severe abdominal pain and it does not go away in a few minutes you should contact your doctor or go to see one.
