Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have proctosigmoiditis up to 20 cm.From last two months, there is a gaseous pain in my abdomen after every 2-3 hours.I am taking rowasa sachet, entofoam enema and mesacol suppositories but I don t know how to treat this pain and also I am eating home made food including chapati,rice,daal and vegetables. Please help.I don t want this to increase to whole intestine colitis.What to do?
It's o.k with what you're taking now for the proctosigmoiditis you have but the pain could be of spastic origin so I'd recommend you some antispastics like Buscopan for a while and Simethicone for gases. It's not contraindicated and as for your doubt for a whole intestine colitis just be patient till the next control colonoscopy.
Hi. Thanks for your query. Proctosigmoiditis is a disease in which you get inflammatory changes at the lowest part of intestinal system. The gaseous distension can be due to many factors as follow: Aerophagia due to swallowing of air Allergy with some food materia like nuts of any types Anxiety and stress Small intestinal infection Bacterial overgrowth
Hence an additional course of an antibiotics, metronidazole, probiotics, avoidance of an allergic food all helps. Your Gastroenterologist will definitely take care of all the factors and treat you accordingly.
