How do doctors test or treat sore intestines?

X-rays and scans: Intestinal pain can be difficult to diagnose. X-rays and scans can help determine a cause, along with upper & lower intestinal endoscopy. There are also laboratory tests to determine gastrointestinal function. The course of investigation dpends on the type of symptoms you are having.

Consult GI MD: Firstly one need to make a diagnosis therefore a gastroenterologist is the best place to start. It all starts with a full history and physical exam
