A member asked:
I have abdominal pain on my left side mostly which comes and goes every few minutes. my lower back is killing me. what works best for gas?

Over the counter : There is very little prescription drugs for the problem. Start with Gas X or the equivalent available at any store. That should help. Plus avoid any offending foods. Just Google foods that cause excessive bloating and gas.
