Abdominal Conditions
Abdominal conditions refer to a variety of health issues affecting the organs located in the abdomen, such as the stomach, intestines, liver, and gallbladder. Common conditions include gastroenteritis, which is inflammation of the stomach and intestines, and appendicitis, an inflammation of the appendix. Symptoms may include pain, bloating, nausea, and changes in bowel habits.
Diagnosis of abdominal conditions often involves physical examinations, imaging tests like ultrasound or CT scans, and laboratory tests. Treatment varies depending on the specific condition and may include medications, dietary changes, or surgical interventions. Early detection is crucial for effective management.
