How Can You Treat Visceral Pain?
The first thing doctors do is to assist the patient in dealing with the pain itself. There are various ways to do this. In most cases, opioid pain relievers or nerve block is administered to the patient. The doctor injects the medication directly to the nerves to stop pain.
After helping the patient in managing the pain, the doctor starts identifying the causes of pain. Treatment often focuses on fixing any underlying issues. For conditions where the patient suffers from kidney stones, the doctor uses a machine for treatment. This machine sends shockwaves into the kidneys in order to break down the stones to smaller pieces. In doing so, the stones can pass through the kidney easily.
The type of treatment that you get mainly depends on the condition that you have. Always check with your doctor once you start feeling an excruciating pain that is different from your usual fibromyalgia symptoms. Your doctor can recommend ways to effectively treat the pain.
since my diagnosis October 2017 alot of things fell into place …. I was diagnosed with Dystonia in 1996 …rheumatoid arthritis in 2016 ….. maybe the pain I feel all relates … so maybe I’ve had Fybromyalgia longer than I thought ….. ŕegards Adele Bretherton
Ibelieve so
Now I know what it is…drives me crazy cuz it’s so hard to describe
I have been having horrible pain that just started in my stomach area that is excruciating. It gets so bad that I cannot go to work. It goes away, but comes back, does this sound familiar?
I have been suffering with this type of pain for several years, not able to describe exactly how it hurts. I have overwhelming nausea and cold chills on and off. Been to a gastroenterologist, internist and rheumotologist. Next stop is an endocrinologist. I have a part time job that I have called off from more times than I like because I’ve been too sick to leave the house. Not sure how long I can hang on feeling like this. Not sure what to do next. I feel your pain.
That complaint I have and the gastroenterologist told me that I have Irritable Bowel Sindrome. This is cause diarrhea other days constipation and abdominal pain.Hope that you no have this.
It sounds very familiar to me.
I have had severe stomach pain since I had chronic sickness which came on suddenly, was investigated but never solved, it only comes on for a few hours usually, but I get painful stomach rumbles. I do have gall stones, but decided they don’t react to fatty foods, so probably aren’t the problem. I think the idea of doctors administering pain relief before investigating is somewhat of a fantasy, even if the pain reaction isn’t necessary comfort isn’t their priority, the diagnosis is. If GPs fob you off, you can request to see a specialist.
Have a test done for celiac disease
I have been getting stomach pains for about twenty years. They come a lot when I bend over or twist certain ways. Docs don’t know what it is.
Had my pain checked… nothing maybe scar tissue
I’ve had stomach problems for a good 30 years off and on and have seen a gastroenterologist for several years still having issues. Been treated for diverticulitis off and on with antibiotics still have issues bad.

I’ve just read through all these comments regarding visceral hypersensitivity . In each and every response there are stomach issues .. yet I haven’t seen one sentence connecting IBS to your gut stretching pains etc .
Just curious as Fibro and IBS go hand in hand . Perhaps if you are treating the IBS / Diverticulitis etc. .. your visceral hypersensitivity would be less than .
