Patient's question:
During the recovery period from diarrhea, this afternoon while straining during a bowel movement, I felt a sharp pain inside, about one centimeter below the navel, as if it had been cut. There is some mild pain in the lower left abdomen and below the navel, but no obvious rectal fullness. This afternoon while straining during a bowel movement, I felt a sharp pain inside, about one centimeter below the navel, as if it had been cut. I want to know if it's intestinal inflammation or something else.Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, the discomfort in the lower abdomen during a bowel movement suggests it may still be a symptom of dysentery. The primary cause is likely an excessive accumulation of internal damp-heat, which obstructs the flow of qi and leads to disharmony, resulting in pain due to blockage.Recommendation: Focus on taking the three medications mentioned above. There is no need to worry too much. Follow a light diet, avoiding greasy, fried, and spicy foods. Maintain a calm and pleasant mood, and avoid overexertion.
The above advice is for this issue. I hope it helps you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
