What Causes A Feeling Of Abdominal Distention After A Colonic Hydrotherapy?

Hello. I am a life/sobriety coach. One of my clients that suffers from hypocondria, had a colonic today. I know several people that have had these and they feel so much better afterwards. My client says she feels horrible, her belly is distended and just wants to be in bed. What are the after effects of a colonic on a healthy 30 year old? Just want to make sure I don t need to take her for further medical care tonight or if this is more of her medical manipulation. Thanks for any insight...

Hi,
Thanks for your question. I do understand your pain and discomfort. I have seen many cases with similar complaints. Please find my advice below-:
1)Do a stool exam to ruled out any parasitic infection present
2)Do an ultrasound to ruled out any stone present inside gallbladder & LFT
3)Do a GI endoscopy to ruled out any pathology relates to esophagus and stomach

I hope I was able to address your query. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write to me.
Wishing you all the best.
Thanks,
I find this answer helpful
