4. Intestinal Gas
Trapped gas can cause intense pain, but it’s relatively short-lived. Certain foods produce more gas than others, such as lentils, beans, lactose and broccoli. Shortly after eating these foods, some people may feel uncomfortable bouts of stabbing pain because they’re unable to expel gas.
The connection between the small and large bowel is in the lower right abdominal region, hence the possibility of pain being related to trapped gas. Give it some time to pass or gently massage the area to release excess air.
