Case report reveals recurrent abdominal pain triggered by cold exposure in an adult male, highlighting the need for clinical awareness of atypical migraine precipitants.
Abdominal migraine (AM) remains a diagnostic challenge, particularly in adults, due to its rarity and diverse clinical presentation.This abstract presents a case report of a 37-year-old male with recurrent abdominal pain triggered by cold exposure, highlighting the complexity of AM in adults and expanding our understanding of potential precipitants.Despite negative investigations, the patient's unique trigger and family history of various medical conditions led to a diagnosis of AM, emphasizing the importance of clinical awareness and comprehensive evaluation.Discussion encompasses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of AM, underscoring the need for individualized treatment approaches and further research into genetic and environmental factors influencing its manifestation.This case underscores the nuanced nature of AM and the imperative for interdisciplinary collaboration in its diagnosis and management.
