Patient's question:
I suddenly felt severe abdominal pain yesterday and called 120 to go to the hospital. It turned out to be acute gastroenteritis. After staying in the hospital for two days, I was discharged. After the doctor's treatment, I felt a bit better, but I still felt uncomfortable and couldn't eat due to the abdominal pain. What should I do about abdominal pain from gastroenteritis and not being able to eat?Doctor's answer:
You are experiencing acute gastrointestinal inflammation, which will significantly affect your gastrointestinal function. This condition may prevent you from having a normal dinner. This is a normal response, and you should focus on intravenous anti-inflammatory treatment while also receiving nutritional injections to maintain your nutritional supply and gastrointestinal function. It usually takes several days to gradually recover.
