I have severe abdominal pain i just ate an nectarine and then an unripe plum?
When you eat nectarines and unripe plums, you get something that we around here call the "green apple quick trots". Good luck.
Reply:colitis,appendecitis,,,,,see yer doc %26amp; quote the nice nurse on this subject above
Reply:My vote goes to the unripe plum. However, just one should not have done that. Maybe you have a tummy bug just in general.
Reply:Sounds like you'll have a case of the runs before the day is over.
Reply:Hi! Could you be more specific? add details to your abdominal pain...because for every symptom (what u feel), there are attributes that every doctor would be looking for, to tell you what it is. you might wanna add details like the following:

LOCATION : which part of the abdomen? (above or below the umbilicus, left or right)

QUALITY OF PAIN: describe the pain...is it gnawing? does it feel like cramps? stabbing? like needles pinned to your stomach ?

SEVERITY: rate 1-10 out of 10

ONSET: did it start right after you ate? how many minutes after? was it sudden? or did it start from slightly painful to severely painful?

DURATION: How long was the pain?

AGGRAVATING FACTORS: does it feel worse if you change positions? if you lie down flat on your back?

ALLEVIATING FACTORS: does it feel ok if you change positions? or relaxed your abdomen?

MEDICATIONS: Are you taking any medications?

Have you ever had the same episodes?



You see...you just can't blame the pain to the nectarine and the unripe plum right away without knowing the whole story. Yes, those may be the reason why you are having such pain. And there may be other reasons like having hyperacidity, gastritis, etc.... But to exactly know WHY you do feel that pain after eating that....you should fill out those information. :) It will guide your physician as to an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment as well. It helps you understand your own illness as well. :)

Hope this helps.
