A condition in which an otherwise happy, healthy, alert young baby has attacks of crying and screaming often quite different from cries for food or attention nearly every day, often in the evening and at about the same hour of the day. Precisely what causes the attacks is unknown, though many people think it involves severe, painful spasms in the intestines; it is often associated with gas rumbling through the intestines. The crying may last for just a few minutes or may go on for 20 minutes or more, then end suddenly, perhaps tailing off into a soft whimper, and may start up again just before sleep. Luckily, the condition generally disappears in a few weeks, with no harm except to the parents\u2019 nerves.<\/p>\n
Gastrointestinal pain experienced by infants. Continual, intense crying, along with fussiness and irritability, are the hallmarks of colic. Almost all affected infants will have the onset of symptoms by 3 weeks of age. Colic usually occurs at least three times a week and lasts for 3 hours or more. It rarely lasts beyond the first 3 months of an infant’s life. Colic can be a sign of a more severe medical problem. A colicky baby who is vomiting or whose bowel movements contain blood or mucus needs to be seen by a pediatrician or family physician. The doctor will examine the child to exclude a more serious problem.<\/p>\n
Severe abdominal pain, usually of fluctuating severity, with waves of pain seconds or a few minutes apart. Infantile colic is common among babies, due to gas in the intestine associated with feeding difficulties. Intestinal colic is due to partial or complete obstruction of the intestine or occasionally to constipation. Colic arising from the small intestine is felt in the mid abdomen; colic from the colon is felt in the lower abdomen.<\/p>\n
This term is generally used for an attack of spasmodic pain in the abdomen.<\/p>\n
Spasm in any hollow or tubular soft organ accompanied by pain.<\/p>\n
The term “colonic” is used to describe something related to the colon, which is a part of the digestive system. Additionally, the term “colic” refers to a type of intense abdominal pain characterized by spasms that come in waves and gradually increase in severity.<\/p>\n
Pertaining to the colon; a sharp abdominal pain that comes and goes.<\/p>\n
Contraction or spasms in the stomach or intestines.<\/p>\n
Severe abdominal pain that is typically intermittent and corresponds with the rhythmic contractions of smooth muscle peristalsis.<\/p>\n
