A member asked:
Does constipation cause gas with abdominal pain?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Gas is a combination of the air you swallow during feeds and the gas produced by gut bacteria feeding on digestive debris. Constipation & pain can occur at the same time, but it is not the cause of the gas.

Constipation may contribute to excess gas formation and abdominal pain and should be addressed with diet changes, proper hydration and physical exercise. There are many other causes for gas formation and abdominal pain and letting your doc know about your symptoms will be best in case they persist.
