A member asked:
If ct results do not show anything but abdominal pain persists, what other tests can be done?

Abdominal Pain: Limited info so difficult to make an assessment. Physical exam, lab tests, possible endoscopy and /or colonoscopy may be done depending upon these other evaluations. Location of the pain in the abdomen may help detemine which additional tests to do. See your doctor.

See a doctor: Physical examination & medical history are very important. Ct scans see solid lesions or tumors. Blood tests, ultrasound, sometimes mri. See a specialist such as gastroenterologist for endoscopy or colonoscopy. Many tests can be done but need a doctor to help direct you in the best direction.
