ABDOMINAL PAIN (PAIN IN THE BOWELS)

Typical symptoms:

abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, nausea

Disease description:

Abdominal pain is more likely caused by the intestines. Small intestine pain occurs at the level of the navel and below. If the large intestine is also affected, the pain can also occur just below the ribcage. Often, cramps of the intestine are accompanied by noises like rumbling. Abdominal pain is often accompanied by nausea, diarrhoea, flatulence or vomiting.

Explanation according to the Traditional Chinese Medicine:

There are Liver, Gallbladder, Spleen, Kidney, Intestine, Bladder and other organs in the abdominal cavity. Moreover, the meridians of Six Yin, Shaoyang of the feet, Yangming of the hands and feet, Chong, Ren and Dai are distributed in the abdomen or abdominal cavity. Attacks by outside Evil, improper diet or visceral dysfunction, can cause blockage of Qi and Blood. A lack of Qi and Blood can’t nourish anymore and can produce abdominal pain.

Possible syndromes causing these problems:

Cold Stagnation

Cold blocks Qi causing abdominal pain (better for warmth and pressure), watery diarrhoea, a cold feeling in the abdomen.

Recommended formulas to use:
