Patient's question:
I have had abdominal pain for a long time. It often gets a bit better after some rambling, but the pain still persists. On the left side below the ribs, I often feel as if something is pressing against me, even to the point where it hurts the skin. How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
This involves qi stagnation and abdominal pain. First, dietary therapy can be applied—pay attention to your diet, eat less beans and more radishes. Secondly, Mu Xiang Shun Qi pills can be taken. If the patient is directly troubled by stomach bloating and gas, we should actively implement thorough examinations and treatment, without avoiding medical visits. If stomach bloating persists despite treatment, it is necessary to promptly adjust the treatment plan. The patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must maintain a light diet while keeping a consistently cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the recovery from stomach bloating.
