Colic refers to episodes of intense, often intermittent, abdominal pain. It is characterized by cramping or spasms in the abdomen, which can cause significant distress. The pain can be caused by various factors, including digestive issues, intestinal obstruction, or spasms in the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract. While colic can affect people of all ages, it is particularly common in infants, causing bouts of inconsolable crying and irritability. The severity and duration of colic episodes vary depending on the underlying cause and individual tolerance. Treatment strategies often include addressing the underlying cause, providing pain relief, and offering comfort to the affected individual.
