What can I do to make it go away? I took Pepto bismol but had no effect. Thanks

Hello, it's been a few days that I have cramps that seem to be digestive (a bar at the navel). I had a day when they were very intense, but since a few days, I have them a few times a day, it is only disturbing and at times unpleasant except that I am able to function as usual.

Hello ma'am,
Do you have other symptoms such as constipation, diarrhea, nausea or other?
Is it secondary to food poisoning, indigestion?

Hello, I had nausea once a few days ago, otherwise nothing else as symptoms except these cramps. Sometimes, but it happens regularly in my daily life, gastric reflux.
i hope this helps!

Thank you for the information, I'm sorry for the delay in my response, I hadn't seen the notification!
It is unlikely that Pepto Bismol can help with these types of symptoms.
If you find this to be a recurring problem, I encourage you to try to find a possible cause. What I would suggest for the next 4-6 weeks is to keep a journal where you write down everything you consume and the amounts, but also the activities you undertake, and your state of mind (fatigue, stress, etc.). In the second column you could write down the occurrence and extent of the symptoms. We could then identify some possible causes. This may take several weeks so I suggest being diligent.
If no cause can be suggested, I suggest consulting a physician to get a thorough evaluation of the situation.
I hope I have been helpful and remain available if you have any further questions!
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
