What Causes Abdominal Cramps After Having Food?

I am having intermittent symptoms after eating...I get intestinal cramping and head for the bathroom But sometimes I throw up what I have recently eating..at the worst, I can also have diarrhea...after that is over, I usually feel pretty well and have no other problems. I am trying now to eat small portions about 5 times per day..that is helping!

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

It may be the result of gut infection or worms, so get stool examination. If stool test is negative, then try to reduce dairy products for a week and start probiotics.

If no response in a week, then you have to undergo ultrasound abdomen and liver function tests besides colonoscopy.

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

Regards,
Dr. Varinder Joshi
