Gastrointestinal spasms usually occur suddenly, and patients may suddenly feel abdominal pain, but specific disease characteristics cannot be found. The pain can last from a few minutes to over ten minutes and recur repeatedly, causing great pain to the patient. So why do we suffer from gastrointestinal spasms? In fact, it is caused by irregular lifestyle, poor gastrointestinal function, and poor dietary habits.

One way is to stir fry ginger, garlic, and scallions with a small amount of alcohol, remove them, wrap them with a cloth and apply them to the painful area to alleviate some pain. Pay attention to the temperature to prevent burns. The second method is to use scraping therapy to alleviate the pain of gastrointestinal spasms. The third thing to note about guasha is to try to defecate, as some gastrointestinal spasms occur before defecation. The fourth one is to lie in bed and take deep breaths, drink some warm water, shift your attention, relax, and wait for the spasms to slowly disappear. But when you feel extremely severe pain and cannot stop it, you must seek medical attention and take medication in a timely manner, follow the doctor's advice, and not take medication casually.
