For 4 days now I have had a sore stomach when pressing on it, around the belly button area and across the lower part, at times I am getting cramps like I'm getting direah but it doesn't actually start, also feeling sick at times. I went to the doctors and he sent me away with buscapan which has stopped the cramps but my stomac is still very sore when I press lightly !! Any idea ? X
No one here should/can diagnose. If you are still in pain, then because it is a weekend, call NHS 24 and describe your symptoms to them - they should be able to advise and get you seen by an out-of-hours GP or, if they think it necessary, get you seen by a local A&E department.
Home Remedies for Sore Stomach
Hi Friend,
I saw your question and thought of replying to it so that you can find some relief.
I would like to inform why this happens..
1) Due to wrong dinning times & junk eating.
2) Due to infection and contaminated water.
3) If you are having severe pain in abdomen then its better you see an physician.
Beside this you can check natural remedies here

I understand that you can not diagnose, that wasn't why I posted, I was just curious if any one else had the same symptoms as me. I've been to the walk in centre and have the second water infection this year ! I am currently drinking water and cranberry juice as the doctor suggested, any ing I can do in future to prevent this ? Xx
I had a urinary tract infection a few months ago and the doc advised me not to drink cranberry juice - just water or weak herb tea.
As far as cranberry juice is concerned - the general 'juice' available in the supermarkets is usually too dilute and/or too full of sugar. If diluted it will not do what it is supposed to do, and sugar supresses the immune system. Cranberry powder may be a better option.
It has been proven scientifically to [url]inhibit bacteria[/url] from attaching to the bladder wall. Cranberry is not recommended if there is a likelihood of kidney stones.
I use the old-fashioned potassium citrate for mild UTIs. Sodium citrate is also available, but for those who need to reduce their sodium intake the potassium is a better option. If that doesn't work, it's back to the doctor.
