What Causes Pain In The Ileocecal Valve?
Yes, I have severe pain in the illeocecal valve area; ER several times say I have good health; drinking mag citrate relieved it = however a few crackers immediately started the pain - up all night; could the gluten prevent the illececal valve from opening? Thank You

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The most common causes of Ileocecal Valve Disorder are diet, allergies, food sensitivities, and stress.
So, I suggest to avoid gluten for a while and evaluate if you will have again the symptoms.
If gluten is the cause of your symptoms,you can consult a dietologist for a specific diet.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
