Hello,

The treatment for abdominal pain depends on its cause. Treatments can range from medications for inflammation, GERD, or ulcers, to antibiotics for infections, to changes in personal behavior for abdominal pain caused by certain foods or beverages.

In some cases, such as appendicitis and hernia, diagnostic tests, such as analyses of blood, urine, and stool samples, CT scans, and endoscopy, may be required to rule out or confirm a specific diagnosis, and surgery may be needed.

Over-the-counter pain relievers, Prescription medications for inflammation, GERD, ulcers, or general pain, Antibiotics, low-dose antidepressants, Changes in behavior, including elimination of certain foods or beverages that may be contributing to abdominal pain, Surgery to remove intestinal blockages, hernia, or infected organs.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Arup Majumdar
