What to do if there is too much bile in the stomach

Everyone has bile in their stomach as a result of digesting food. Generally speaking, the bile content in the human body is within a normal range. However, some people find that there is more bile in their stomachs and bile reflux often occurs, causing them to feel stomach acid and bloating, and they often have symptoms of loss of appetite. So, what should you do if there is too much bile in your stomach?

1. Patients with bile reflux gastritis have a feeling of fullness or discomfort in the stomach, which often worsens after meals, or have stomach pain, or a cold stomach, which may be accompanied by abdominal distension, belching, acid reflux, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, gastric gurgling, intestinal rumbling, difficulty in defecation, loss of appetite and weight loss. In severe cases, there may also be gastric bleeding, manifested as vomiting blood or black stools (tarry stools) and a positive fecal occult blood test.

2. The occurrence of bile reflux gastritis first requires the basic conditions of pyloric function loss or pyloric incomplete closure. For example, after gastrectomy or gastrointestinal anastomosis, bile can directly reflux into the stomach; some patients have no history of surgery, and the duodenal contents can reflux into the stomach through the incomplete closure of the pylorus, causing reflux gastritis; the function of storing bile is lost after cholecystectomy, and bile continues to flow into the duodenum. If it refluxes into the stomach through the incomplete closure of the pylorus, it can also cause reflux gastritis.

3. It is currently believed that bile reflux can lead to upper gastrointestinal ulcers, gastrointestinal inflammation and tumors. In other words, long-term bile reflux can lead to hyperplasia, active inflammation, esophagitis, gastric mucosal erosion, gastric ulcers, and even promote the occurrence of gastric cancer. It is closely related to the occurrence of ulcers, upper gastrointestinal inflammation, and tumors. If bile reflux gastritis is not treated in time, serious complications may occur, such as ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, esophageal stenosis, etc. The refluxed gastric juice can also erode the vocal cords, pharynx and trachea, causing chronic laryngitis, chronic pharyngitis and tracheitis.

There are many ways to treat bile reflux. Generally, people first need to consider using medication to treat and relieve it. The specific drugs generally used to treat bile reflux disease include metoclopramide, mosapride and other drugs. These drugs can not only promote gastric motility, but also effectively protect the gastric mucosa, which is very beneficial for the conditioning and treatment of bile reflux disease.

In addition, medical experts tell us that the most important thing to adjust in the care of bile reflux disease is the daily diet of patients with bile reflux disease. Experts say sweet potatoes are a good choice. Sweet potatoes are rich in fiber, which has a good laxative effect. It can also excrete excess fat, sugar and toxins in the human intestines, thereby playing a very good lipid-lowering role.

Medical experts will provide patients with professional and detailed knowledge on the treatment and relief methods of bile reflux disease, hoping that it will be helpful in treating, alleviating and preventing bile reflux disease. In addition, medical experts tell us that in addition to the various foods mentioned above, vegetables such as spinach, celery, and corn also have particularly good effects in preventing and treating bile reflux disease. Patients with bile reflux may wish to eat more of them.
