What are the common causes of chronic intestinal issues and pain?

Hello,

We understand your concern. Chronic intestinal problems and stomach pain can happen for several reasons, such as constipation, gas, food intolerance, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), intestinal infections, or inflammation in the digestive system. The exact cause depends on your symptoms and how long you have been experiencing them.

What should you do?

• Consult a gastroenterologist (a doctor who treats stomach and intestinal problems) for proper evaluation.

• Eat freshly prepared food, drink enough water, and include fibre in your diet if it suits your symptoms.

• Avoid foods that trigger your pain and do not take antibiotics or painkillers without medical advice.

• Seek urgent medical care if you have severe or worsening abdominal pain, blood in your stool, persistent vomiting, fever with severe pain, or a swollen abdomen with inability to pass stool or gas.

To guide you better and help connect you with a suitable doctor or partner hospital, please share your city and state. Also, let us know what symptoms you have and how long you have been experiencing them.

Wishing you and your family good health always.
Warm regards,
Team HexaHealth
