Stomach pains or cramps can be an indication of an acute abdomen, which needs to be thoroughly assesssed. If pathology is ruled out consider the following causes of generalized inflammation: food allergies, upper GI bleeding, gastritis and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
Also consider that you may be suffering from dysbiotic bowel, a possible parasitic infection, or that you may be allergic to certain foods. A person that is allergic to gluten will complain of stomach cramps and pain, as will a person that is lactose intolerant.
