Suggest Remedy For Abdominal Pain
I am 61 years old, I have had abdominal pain for about 5 months now and diagnosed initially with a fecal impaction. All labwork has been perfectly normal but had three trips to the ER for abdominal discomfort. No vomiting and very little nausea. Starting to gain my appetite back but bowel movements are irregular. My doctor has reassured me there is no need for worry but I am not getting any better on Protonix. Can you give me some feedback on this?

Welcome to health care magic.
1.This type of conditions are been in case of acute / chronic gastroenteritis - inflammatory condition of the bowel.
2.Also seen in case of irritable bowel syndrome - with no obvious cause on and off abdominal discomfort.
3.Treatment in case includes basic diet more of salads, fruits, fibrous diet for better bowel moment.
4.Avoid spicy, junk, excess fat containing food and alcohol - these can cause irritable effect on the bowel.
5.So if you try to change your diet habits for some time there will be change, even though there is no response, then further course will be abdomen pelvis CT scan.
Good luck.
Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask ? do not hesitate to ask.
