Solid organs (like the liver or spleen) do not have muscular walls that squeeze in this manner, so they cannot cause colic pain. Because every form of acute adult colic shares the exact same biological mechanism – an irritated hollow organ combined with a squeezing smooth muscle – the first preferred line of treatment relies on a dual combination of NSAID (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug) and Anti-Spasmodic medication.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”more-faq-sec-con”][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”8027″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”more-faq-sec-con”][vc_column_inner][vc_custom_heading text=”More Answer For You”][vc_column_text single_style=””]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What is colic?
