Mackenzie answered Wednesday October 5 2005, 5:21 pm: You have many options here: It's well known that regular physical activity helps reduce cramping, so there's an idea. You could also try taking a warm bath and using aromatherapy. Applying a heating pad on your lower abdomen or back should do wonders. If you don't have a heating pad, you can make one by simply filling a sock with rice and heating it in the microwave for a few minutes [must sound silly, but if the cramps get bad enough, it just might be worth it]. Also, have you been taking medication? Are you female? Many women start taking pills around the clock from the time their cycle starts, until it ends. Any pain killer will do, but I reccommend Ibuprofen, Extra Strength Advil or Midol -- it's also best to take medication will a meal, that way the risk of stomach discomfort is slimmed. A week is a prettie long time. If this persists, I suggest telling a parent, if possible.. [: [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]

GDROB answered Wednesday September 28 2005, 10:25 pm: Well you may have licked half of the problem. If greasy foods often led to the cramps you may have an intolerance to them and or ulcers like I did a few weeks back. If you cannot keep foods down you will need stomach ant-acids to get your system back online. This issue can either be ulcers or gallbladder with you. Make an ER visit if it does not stop. It probably is not your appendix because those pains are in different areas. I think it warrents a doctor's visit. [ GDROB's advice column | Ask GDROB A Question ]
