Hey all,

I was reading IBS forum in order to get more info and get some relaxing answers but I couldn't find anything about pain at back side. Sorry for asking once again.

I had been experiencing this abdominal problems and excessive gas since 3-4 weeks and already started having some limitations in my diet (and going to see doctor soon). I have had diarrhea VERY RARELY in my life but I do BM everyday at least once. I've always had so much gas because it's in the family but yesterday evening (maybe because of much stress) I started having some slight pain (not continuous) in between my shoulder blades (scapula I guess). It's like a very slight burning sensation more than a severe pain or ache. Mixed with a little bit muscle soreness or stiffness. I also have this "under right (sometimes left) rib cage" type of pain which you all mentioned. But I obviously have so many gas bubbling sounds in all around abdomen. And a slight sore feeling in my lower back sides (especially right). I have a kidney stone also which basically never moves or aches (I forgot which side).

I am wondering if bowel/abdomen/stomach related stuff can effect back side also, especially upper parts.

I don't want to get panic over a type of slight sore feeling because I want to believe it would give stronger pain or ache (in addition to some other different symptoms) if it was lung/liver related serious issues. And my body feels a bit warm in that area but also in my abdomen, the places where I have slight pain or cramps.

I am going to ask doctor anyways but I need to wait a couple of days it seems.

Hi
I,ve had ibs for over 20 years (never been scoped) just dianosed by my symtoms.
My ibs symtoms have always seemed different from other peoples for some reason .
I mainly get a "warm" feeling in my left or right side at the front , but it can also be at the back aswell on both sides and goes up to my chest at times .
Its now in my back in the kidney area but also moves right to the front aswell :shrug:
Its as if (guessing) the discomfort gives differed pain/discomfort elsewhere .
I also get the gurgling , loose stools and pencil thin ones aswell ...yuk sorry .
I,ve had it on and off for years so it doesn,t worry me but its getting to me at the moment as i,ve had it a month none stop !
