Patient's question:
I have always been a person who doesn't avoid any kind of food, but I have never had any illness or pain. However, recently, I don't know why, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach and often go to the toilet to have diarrhea. I am quite frustrated because I have to attend tutoring classes. I want to know how to treat stomach pain and diarrhea?Doctor's answer:
Generally, when abdominal pain is accompanied by diarrhea, it is often a result of acute intestinal inflammation. In cases of bacterial or viral inflammatory infections, it can easily lead to edema of the gastrointestinal mucosa, resulting in increased osmotic pressure and thus more frequent diarrhea. At the same time, due to the stimulation of inflammation, it can cause spasms of the stomach and intestines, leading to abdominal pain.In such situations, the first step is to rest and drink an appropriate amount of water.
