Hi ! Good afternoon. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. The chronic pain in your abdomen could be either be due to some kind of infection, or due to some kind of sensitivity of the intestinal mucosa to any component of the food you eat. If I were your doctor, I would advise you for some modification in your diet like more of roughage, enough liquids, avoidance of oily, fried, and fast food, and avoidance of alcoholic beverages and smoking if you do with a regular routine exercise programme like morning walk depending on your medical fitness. Prescription of a proton pump inhibitor and a liquid antacid might help. If there was no relief or if the symptoms increase in intensity, I would advise you to go for a routine stool test for ova and cyst and treat it if positive. An ultrasound of whole abdomen to rule out any possibility of a gall stone disease or any other intra abdominal pathology might be helpful . Lastly, an appointment with a gastro enterologist in case of no relief or increasing severity of the disease, I would refer you to a gastro enterologist for a possible endoscopic evaluation of your intestines. Further management would depend on the reports of investigations and result of a physical examination. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
