summary

Muscle spasm refers to the phenomenon of muscle sudden and involuntary tonic contraction, which can cause muscle stiffness and unbearable pain. So, what causes muscle spasm, and how to prevent it? Let's talk about it today.

What reason is abdominal muscle spasm

First, there are several situations that can easily cause muscle spasm. Enterospasm, in a strict sense, is not an organic disease. It is a functional disease. It is mainly manifested by the sudden occurrence of periumbilical paroxysmal abdominal pain in healthy children. After repeated occurrence for tens of minutes or even several hours, the abdominal pain disappears. During the intermission period, there will be no clinical peritoneal irritation sign, namely abdominal muscle tension, tenderness and rebound pain.

Second, local circulation is poor. Excessive loss of water and salt. Severe diarrhea, vomiting and insufficient mineral content in diet (such as magnesium and calcium). The ambient temperature suddenly changed. Slight laceration of muscle or tendon. Emotional stress.

Third: the incidence of some chronic diseases and pregnant women's cramps will also increase, so we should be careful. Its pathogenesis is mainly due to the strong contraction of the smooth muscle of the intestinal wall, which often leads to crying in children. In severe cases, it can roll on the spot. Its inducing factors are mainly caused by improper diet, such as eating a lot of raw and cold food, overeating, intestinal gas accumulation, etc. in addition, intestinal parasites can also lead to intestinal spasm, such as Ascaris lumbricoides.

matters needing attention

Abdominal spasm is often accompanied by abdominal pain and other discomfort. There are many causes of abdominal pain. Enterospasm is a non organic disease, but we should be alert to some organic diseases, such as intussusception, which is mainly manifested as abdominal pain, jam like stool and abdominal palpable sausage like mass. The harm of intussusception is far higher than enterospasm.
