Lying down to cure stomach ailment.

I used to have constipation problems when I was younger, and every once in a while I would have to go to the nurse because of a pain in my stomach that wouldn't go away unless I laid down for ten minutes. Once I got up the pain was gone.
This still happens to me sometimes. Is it indigestion? Does anyone else have a problem like this where if they lie down it all goes away?

    yeah it sounds like gas pains. if it was indigestion, laying down would actually make it worse cause then all your stomach acid would travel up into your throat. also indigestion is more of a burning than a pain. i use over the counter stuff for those types of brutal gas pains, like gaviscon, tums and pepto. they actually help. if the stomach pains are unbearable then tell your doctor.
