Is it normal for abdominal pain to subside after a bowel movement?

Whether the relief of abdominal pain after defecation is normal or not depends on the specific situation. If it is caused by functional gastrointestinal dysfunction, it is a normal phenomenon. If it is caused by organic lesions, although the symptoms of abdominal pain are relieved, it is also necessary to treat the cause of the disease.
Functional gastrointestinal dysfunction: such as due to the consumption of undigested food or emotional fluctuations stimulated by the gastrointestinal tract irritability, intestinal smooth muscle spasm contraction, causing abdominal pain, abdominal pain after excretion of the symptom will disappear, is a normal phenomenon.
2. Organic lesions: such as acute gastroenteritis, intestinal tumors and other lesions caused by abdominal pain and diarrhea, abdominal pain symptoms will be slightly relieved with the excretion, but due to the cause of abdominal pain and diarrhea is not eliminated, the symptomatic relief will reappear. It is necessary to treat according to the specific cause of the disease in order to fundamentally relieve abdominal pain.
If abdominal pain is relieved after defecation, do not be careless, pay attention to identify the cause of the occurrence, and if necessary, we recommend consulting a doctor to clarify whether it is functional or organic lesions, so as to avoid misunderstanding the condition.
