See Doctor: Best to be seen by a physician, given your persistent pain. Nothing will replace good old fashion in person history and physical examination. Best wishes.

Don't know.: Where is the pain? That is important. What causes the pain? That is important. What makes it better or worse. 4 days of belly pain requires a visit to your doctor.
