I've had lower right pain in my abdomin off and on for several weeks. last bowel movement looked loose, black fibers almost like chewing tobacco.

Need an exam: I am concerned about the color change of your bowel movement, in association with several weeks of abdominal pain. It is necessary for you to have an abdominal exam plus medical evaluation right away. Lab work and probable CT scan will be ordered. Please take care of yourself. Good luck.

I have had a Abdominal Ultrasound and CT Scan and nothing out of the ordinary has been found. I recently quit chewing tobacco. I am experiencing intermittent trapped gas and aches in chest and abdomen. How do I get rid of this gas?
For the last three nights I've been waking up between 4 and 5 AM with severe cramps in my lower abdomen/intestinal area. I have some gas but passing it does not relieve the pain, nor does having a bowel movement. OTC meds no help.
I have a recurring pain in my lower left abdomen, unrelated to my period, feels like gas but isn't relieved by bowel movement, sometimes shoots down my thigh, usually lasts a day but this time several days. Uncomfortable but not impeding?
Possible small hernia on lower right of abdomen. No pain, or signs of strangulation, if anything, opposite, more gas and loose bowel movements. Insurance won't cover surgery. Can I leave this be for now and not worry?
I normally am constipated but in the last week I have experienced a lot of gas With a mucus clear to pinkish in color along with bowel movements That are large pebble size covered in mucus. Some lower abdomen discomfort too?
