I also wondered what this pain could have been, since i didn't get a diagnosis for it, my doctor just thought it was an awful amount of stress and anxiety but i thought otherwise. Another huge thing is posture/position. feel like that pain gets worse when I put a lot of pressure on my stomach (reading, studying, writing with head downwards). it honestly could be a huge mixture of things. like foods you ate, acid reflux, position. so many aspects, not just bowel movement.
