Abdominal pain and discomfort can strike at any time, without warning, and can have a considerable impact on your everyday life. There may be times when the cramps and spasms from abdominal pain can literally stop you in your tracks or leave you doubled up in pain. This can be really disruptive and may prevent you working, studying, sleeping or even carrying out the simplest tasks.

If you are experiencing abdominal pain on a regular basis, it is important that you speak to a doctor, as you may have a condition such as IBS, which can be effectively managed once diagnosed. If your abdominal pain is recurring or getting worse, or if pain is accompanied by fever or weight loss, or if you notice blood on your stools, it is also very important you discuss your symptoms with a doctor immediately.
