    hi everybody, I am 24 but I feel like my life is hell coz I am always experiencing stomach pain almost every single day. I can rate it 7/10 and when it gets worst 9/10. What scare me the most is the fact that it even affect my genital part. My penis and testicles feel like some kind of burning inside. I have taken severe stomach painkillers like paracetamol, ibuprofen, co-codamol etc but it’s just helping much. I am so desperate to work it out. I would be so grateful to receive advice from you,

    I wanted to say that those painkillers just don’t help much. thanks

Other investigations necessary may be sonogram of abdomen. It is harmful to take medicine without a doctor’s prescription.
