Patient's question:
I have had abdominal pain for over 2 years. I had 3 endoscopies, and the results were chronic superficial gastritis. I had 1 colonoscopy, and the result was chronic colitis. I had over 10 abdominal ultrasounds, which showed fatty liver. I had 1 full abdominal CT with 13-directional reconstruction. I had blood tests and other detailed examinations. These are the tests done for my abdominal pain. What else should I do? I am in constant pain—what could be causing this?Doctor's answer:
In your case, chronic superficial gastritis and colitis can both cause abdominal pain. If this is the situation, you can take many medications to treat colitis and gastritis, wait and see, and avoid eating extremely cold, greasy, and spicy foods in your daily diet. You can eat light and easily digestible foods. For patients, if the gastritis condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered, and appropriate medication should be used. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of gastritis. Additionally, patients need to maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition.
