Symptom 4: Nausea and Vomiting
Nausea and vomiting are less common but still possible symptoms of ischemic colitis. These symptoms can be a result of the inflammation and injury to the colon’s lining, leading to increased sensitivity and irritability of the gastrointestinal tract.
Nausea and vomiting can also be triggered by the presence of gas, bloating, or abdominal pain associated with ischemic colitis. In some cases, these symptoms may be worsened by certain foods or eating habits, such as consuming large meals or eating high-fat foods.
Managing nausea and vomiting related to ischemic colitis may involve adjusting the diet, eating smaller and more frequent meals, or taking anti-nausea medications as prescribed by a healthcare professional. It is essential to monitor these symptoms and seek medical advice if they become persistent or severe. (4)
