Questions
We’re here to make your visit as easy as possible.
Below are answers to common questions about abdominal pain.
What causes abdominal pain?
Abdominal pain can have many causes, including indigestion, gas, constipation, stomach viruses, food poisoning, acid reflux, urinary tract infections, and other digestive conditions. The location, severity, and duration of your pain can help determine the possible cause.
When should I go to Lansing Urgent Care for abdominal pain?
Visit Lansing Urgent Care for mild to moderate abdominal pain that persists, keeps returning, or is accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, constipation, or urinary discomfort. Sudden or severe abdominal pain should be evaluated in an emergency room.
Can Lansing Urgent Care treat stomach pain?
Yes. Our providers evaluate many causes of non emergency stomach and abdominal pain. Depending on your symptoms, treatment may include medication, diagnostic testing, supportive care, or referral for additional evaluation.
What does pain in different areas of the abdomen mean?
The location of abdominal pain can provide clues about its cause. Upper abdominal pain may be related to indigestion or gallbladder problems, while lower abdominal pain may involve the intestines, bladder, or reproductive organs. Right lower abdominal pain can sometimes indicate appendicitis and requires prompt evaluation.
How do I know if my abdominal pain is serious?
Warning signs include severe or worsening pain, a rigid or swollen abdomen, persistent vomiting, bloody stools, fainting, or fever with significant abdominal tenderness. These symptoms may indicate a serious condition requiring emergency care.
Can constipation or gas cause severe stomach pain?
Yes. Constipation and trapped gas can cause cramping, bloating, pressure, and abdominal discomfort. However, severe or persistent pain should not automatically be attributed to gas or constipation because other medical conditions can cause similar symptoms.
Can Lansing Urgent Care test for the cause of abdominal pain?
Yes. Depending on your symptoms, our providers may recommend urine testing, pregnancy testing, blood work, or other diagnostic services. Some conditions require ultrasound, CT imaging, or additional testing at a hospital.
What is the difference between stomach pain and abdominal pain?
Stomach pain usually refers to discomfort associated with the stomach itself, while abdominal pain can involve several organs, including the intestines, liver, gallbladder, kidneys, and bladder. Patients often use the terms interchangeably.
How can I relieve mild abdominal pain at home?
Rest, drinking fluids, eating smaller meals, and avoiding foods that worsen symptoms may help with mild abdominal discomfort. Treatment depends on the underlying cause, so persistent or worsening pain should be evaluated rather than repeatedly treated at home.
When should I go to the emergency room for abdominal pain?
Seek emergency care for sudden or severe abdominal pain, pain following significant injury, vomiting blood, black or bloody stools, fainting, a rigid abdomen, or abdominal pain during pregnancy. Severe pain accompanied by chest pain or difficulty breathing also requires emergency attention.
