Back pain along with stomach bloating and bowel problems

For about a week and a half now I have been suffering from constant back pain that seems to move around my back and seems to be intense at night. Along with this is stomach bloating and bowel problems, some days I can't stay out of the restroom and other days nothing or very little. I have a lot of gas, yet it seems hard to expel. Not sure if I should call my doctor or is this something that will pass. I do have IBS so not sure if it is just a matter of time and it will go away?

I know it's been a LONG time, but did you ever figure out what it was? I have the exact same symptoms.
I have the same problem. I have gas pain in my stomach and back. It gets worse when I lie down. I did have my Gallbladder removed around five years ago. I find that taking a Heartburn medication helps. I also think Beano before I eat might help though I have not tried it yet. I would rather have this pain than have that horrible Gallbladder pain! That made me sweat and have to lie on the tile in the bathroom.
Dear Guest, I know that stress causes a great deal of symptoms but I get those even when not stressed. And please keep in mind that when we get them they can last days if not weeks. Exercise is not an option when the pain makes you vomit and you get dizzy from the pain alone.
I have 9 toes. I too am this problem, i cant poop atall and my rib is fractured.
I have had these symptoms for a long time. Constipation then loose run to the bathroom cycle. Then while digging with a shovel in the back yard wound up with a real pain in my lower back just above the hips.
Make it short I found that Simethicone which is in gas relief pills seem to help. No more cycles to the bathroom and easing or no back pain. I take them at every meal. I got them from Walmart equate also Gasx same ingredient. I am, today, starting to take a stool softener to see if it further helps.
Hope this helps many!
Gallbladder , I have the same symptoms and I'm waiting to have my gall bladder removed after a scan showed I have a huge stone blocking a duct
I have had back pain for a few days, I have a history of back pain following shingles. It is in the lower central back. I thought it may have been cause by sitting upright a lot as I have been studying but I have a good posture so not sure. I also seem to have some kind of mild constipation. Tonight I noticed I was incredibly bloated. I exercise regularly and have eaten a varied diet. Any ideas?
I'm a 20 year old female with no health problems. . other than this.
Melanie43- I'm suffering the same systems as you. Have you had any help on this forum?
I had the same thing. Lower back pain was excruciating. I started drinking 1/2 lemon and water and also apple cider mixed with apple juice. Symptoms subsided drastically in 1 day
My doctor said, "We call it IBS when we can't figure out what's wrong". He said this after I asked if my symptoms were IBS. He said IBS is not a real thing, but they have to call your symptoms something since they can't figure out it.
Hi there. I seemed to solve everything once I stopped office work. Now unfortunately I have to go back to work and guts are not happy, nor is groin/SI joint area. I do have a few dehydrated discs, and my lower spine is 'degenerative' meaning it's got arthritis into it (consistent from a fall from a height twenty years ago).
My solution is a desk that I can adjust (and stand instead of sitting) and a chair that allows good posture. A few lessons of Alexander Technique have helped me understand what I was doing to myself by adapting to poor workstations over the years.
Fleas and ticks are very bad you can get lime disease. Ask your dr. About it..
