Nothing for IMMEDIATE relief. Becareful because diverticuli can perforate and spill fecal matter into the abdomen causing a life-threatening condition called peritonitis. Any intense abdominal pain always needs to be checked out.

A diet high in fiber is recommended for people who have this disease. If there is pain or discomfort then anti-spasmodic medications such as Librax or Bentyl can be prescribed by your doctor.
