ABDOMINAL PAIN SPECIALIST

Abdominal pain is a tricky medical condition that could be caused by a number of different factors. These can include gas, ulcers, indigestion, constipation, IBS, menstrual cramps, appendicitis, hernias, and stomach viruses. Before the pain gets worse or the discomfort spreads, come to WesTex Urgent Care.

Dr. Beck will thoroughly examine patients who come in with abdominal pain, as well as asking questions and learning more about their history and symptoms. Based on the exam, we might order certain tests to give you a proper diagnosis. Treatment for abdominal pain can vary based on the case; pain from menstrual cramps can be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers, whereas pain caused by gas or indigestion can be treated with prescriptions. In some cases, we might not be able to treat or determine the exact cause of a patient’s abdominal pain, which is when we’ll refer you to a specialist if necessary.
