A couple of years ago I was having terrible pains in my lower tummy (like where the appendix is, but on the left), so I saw my doctor. My stomach was sticking out like I was 6 months pregnant, and he said it seemed to be all gas! I had x-rays and ultra-sounds done and the diagnosis was 'severe constipation'. I eat healthy (hardly any red meat and basically no junk), exercise regularly, drink heaps of water, don't smoke or drink... so what's the problem? I'm asking because I'm having pains again and my stomach is huge! If anyone knows of a health reason (I'm pretty sure I'm lactose intolerant, so that's not it, as I avoid dairy products) or can tell me what I should or shouldn't be eating, I'd really appreciate it! THANKS!!!
PS: Laxatives, prunes, etc work for a bit, but then it all happens again
