Stomach Pain

[louise0501]

Hi there. I'm extremely anxious, I have been away over the weekend and eaten more than I should. I now seem to have constant pain in my stomach, it's one side where my ribs are. I'm worried this might be cancer. It's quite painful but doesn't feel like stomach cramps but feels like muscular pain. I'm so worried and so scared. I'm 32, overweight, don't smoke, don't drink.

Please reply

Love Louise xxxxxxxxxx

It's probably just indigestion. What side is it on?

[louise0501]

It's on the right side.

Yeah, my guess would be just bad indigestion/gastritis from overeating. This has happened to me in the past. I'd try a mild diet for a few days to see if it goes away and if not gone in a few days check in with your doctor. I wouldn't be at all worried about cancer. I'd think worst case scenario is gallstones, but I think that pain is quite severe from people I've known with them.

Won’t be cancer

Not cancer - over-eating!
