Pain in stomach after eating peanuts

[Gykyijv]

I had a ramekin of peanuts this afternoon and now I have increasing stomach pain this evening.
I don't know what's going on, I don't think it's an allergy as no other symptoms other than crampy stomach pain.
I have eaten peanut butter recently with no issues at all.
I do have a gut that can be a bit iffy these days and I wonder if I have IBS.
Could the peanuts have caused IBS type pain?
Hoping it starts to reduce soon so I can go to bed

I have IBS and I have to be careful how many peanuts I eat in one go, they're as effective as a bowl of All Bran. You might want to take some Buscopan.

Urgh I've probably eaten too many and now my stomach is complaining. I wonder how long this pain will last.
Unfortunately don't have any buscopan, just paracetamol

Were they salted? I'd drink a glass of water, slowly. See if it helps

If its IBS, I'm afraid that it will last until you go to the toilet. Its usually no longer than 8-12 hours in my case, and I might need to get up in the middle of the night.

It could be the high fat content

I've just had a peppermint tea, hope that helps a bit. The waves of pain are pretty bad. I don't know if making myself sick would help?

I get that with cashews as well as really bad indigestion, followed by vomiting, I steer well clear of cashews now! Can eat other nuts fine though.
Just be aware if it is an allergy it may be worse next time.

I think I read that peanuts are actually legumes not nuts as such. So, think peas and beans type stomach issues. I avoid them now I know that.

I have some simethicone which is used for stomach gas, I wonder if that would help at all

I've had that twice in my life and both times was after eating chilli peanuts. I remember crying and being curled up in agony. It was like the worst trapped wind ever.
Relieving the trapped wind by cycling motions etc was the only thing that helped.

I hope you feel better soon.

Simethicone should help as the gas is painful; vomiting won't help because the nuts are already in your gut.

Thank you

I get this as well, its usually only with raw peanuts or peanut butter not when they are roasted or in a chocolate bar for example. I think its the skin that is the problem it really seems to irritate my gut. I now totally avoid peanuts unless roasted or in a bar as its really very painful. I'm afraid for me I just had to ride it out as nothing really helped that much, a hot water bottle might ease it a bit. Hope you feel better soon!

Is it under your ribs? Could be gallbladder. Due to the high fat content of peanuts.

No it's not as high as under ribs, it's mid stomach and very crampy
