How to confirm the reason for my tummy pain?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I have pain in my tummy like cramps and I am suffering from constipation. I also have symptoms of pregnancy. Today morning my stools were with blood. They were light purple in color and strange. Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

It is possible that you might be having a bowel infection or constipation itself is causing the minimal bleeding in stools. Pregnancy is unlikely to cause severe stomach cramps in early stage. However, you should also confirm your pregnancy by doing a pregnancy test. If required you might get an ultrasound scan done to know any condition causing your symptoms.
