A member asked:
For a week i have occasionally pain in the left side of the lower abdomen. till now i have not had these pains. i'm scared. what can be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mild or severe?: If the pains are mild or moderate and go away completely without any other symptoms, then i would just watch it and see. If you have been constipated, try something OTC to help such as miralax (polyethylene glycol) or sennakot. if the pain is severe, causing a fever or bloody diarrhea, then you need to be seen by a doctor.
