What is Allergic Gastroenteritis?

This is a condition where the intestines react strongly to certain foods or other unknown allergens, causing diarrhea and abdominal discomfort. Common triggers include milk, eggs, seafood, and nuts. Childhood allergies may gradually disappear by adulthood, but allergies can develop at any point in life.

Typical Symptoms of Allergic Gastroenteritis

Diagnostic Questions for Allergic Gastroenteritis

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Do you experience nausea or vomiting after eating?
  • Does anyone in your family have a history of asthma, allergies, or hay fever?
  • Do you have stomach or abdominal pain in a specific area?
  • Have you noticed any blood in your stool?
  • Do you have stomach or abdominal pain that worsens after meals?

Treatment of Allergic Gastroenteritis

The most important step is identifying and removing the allergen or trigger foods. A steroid or other immunosuppressant may be prescribed. Rarely, some patients may require hospital medical care.

Q.

What Medicine Works for Lower Abdominal Pain Caused by Viral Gastroenteritis (Stomach Flu)?

A.

For lower abdominal pain caused by viral gastroenteritis (commonly known as the stomach flu), the primary treatment focuses on symptom relief rather than specific medications. Over-the-counter medications can help alleviate pain and discomfort, but it is essential to stay hydrated and allow the body to recover.
