Colic
Colic means spasmodic pain originating in a hollow viscus.
There are 4 types of colics.
1. Intestinal colic - It is caused by over distension of some parts of the intestines usually associated with flatulence and constipation. It is due to acute indigestion and the pain is gripping, tearing or twitching. It shifts about and is relieved by deep pressure. There is no rise of temperature or of pulse rate, vomiting or passage of wind may occur with partial relief symptoms.
2. Biliary colic - It is caused by attempt of a gall stone to pass along the gall - duct and by the consequent inflammation. The pain is below the right ribs where there is tenderness as well. Jaundice, rigor, high temperature may or may not occur.
3. Pancreatic colic - This also may give rise to jaundice and the stools contain much fat. The pain is between the tip of the breast bone and navel.
4. Renal colic - It is due to passage of stone. The pain is excruciating. Urine may be bloody, vomiting is common. The pain passes from the loins into one of the testicles.
