I know that when the UC abdominal pain kicks in, for me a cold wash cloth to the stomach area helps calm it down. There are trigger foods that I've cut out of my diet that have helped with the abdominal cramping. I've discovered cold and/or ice packs are what give me relief when I have joint pain. Contacting your GI doctor is where I would start. It could be a form of joint pain associated with the UC. I hope this is of some help to you. Best wishes Sherw
