A member asked:
Had severe pain almost fainted and felt like stomach was going to explode with pressure. went to er and finally went to bathroom and had horrible diarrhea. was diagnosed with colitis after ct scan. can it be lactose intolerance causing a blockage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lactose intolerance is a chronic condition and if you have not had symptoms on taking milk/milk products, it is unlikely to be lactose intolerance. It is more likely to be a viral enteritis and should resolve. Drink enough water to stay hydrated.
