SEAT BELT INJURY -- STOMACH PAIN

[Draven26]

HI I WAS CURIOUS IF YOU HAD ANY ADVICE OR SUGGESTIONS YOU COULD GIVE ME BECAUSE I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT BACK IN 2011 WHEN A DRUNK DRIVER HIT ME AND THE SEAT BELT WAS WRAPPED AROUND MY STOMACH SO IT SMASHED IN AND EVER SINCE THAT DAY I HAVE STILL BEEN GETTING SPASMS AND ABDOMINAL PAIN AND NO MATTER HOW MANY DOCTORS I SEE THEY ALWAYS RUN THE TESTS AND SAY EVERYTHING IS FINE BUT THERE’S SOMETHING GOING ON THERE AND IT’S NOT GAS.. I’M TIRED OF DOCTORS WHO KEEP SUGGESTING THAT. WHAT CAN I DO OR TAKE OR SOMETHING TO MAKE THIS PAIN GO AWAY!

Painkillers I guess but all the good ones come with risk of addiction (opiates, benzos, gabas) or other eventual side effects (ketamine)

See another dr, if it’s stomach spams you could ask for an antispasmodic which should help your stomach. I’d try that before going down the pain killer route because that’s a slippery slope.
