A member asked:

I have radiating pain on my left side that radiates to my lower belly and back. also have some gas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gas: The colon takes a sharp turn in the upper left abdomen and gas entrapment often occurs there. Drinking hot water and applying a hot water bottle to the abdomen helps break down the gas and moves it along for passing. Take simethicone after meals to prevent gas build-up. If you have persistent pain and tenderness, see your physician for evaluation and treatment.
