A member asked:

My lower abdomen of my stomach keeps hurting and i feel a little nauseous. i don't know if it's my bowel movements acting up. but what should i do? is this a sign of something?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe : New onset lower abdominal pain lasting 1-2 hrs is often “functional” (part of the normal functioning of your body) and no cause for concern. If it lasts more than 4-6 hrs, need to discuss with a doctor (perhaps telemedicine). More than 8-12 hrs, to Urgent Care or ER
