Abdominal massage attenuated the intestinal damages and infiltration of MC. (a) Morphological changes of small intestinal mucosa were detected by HE in normal (NC), IBS (mod), abdominal massage (FBTN), and ketotifen treatment groups (FBTN + drug) (scale bar 50 μm). (b) Mast cells were detected by toluidine blue staining in normal, IBS, abdominal massage, and ketotifen treatment groups (scale bar 50 μm).
