What are the symptoms and treatment of stomach problems?

Some patients with stomach problems have mild symptoms and can be treated with medication in the early stages, while others have severe conditions and require a combination of physical therapy and medication. The early stages of stomach problems mainly manifest as pain, bloating, severe acid reflux and indigestion. It is also necessary to go to the hospital for a reasonable diagnosis based on the symptoms of the disease, and then prescribe relevant medications that match the symptoms according to the doctor's arrangements.

The symptoms of gastritis can be mild or severe, the most common of which are upper abdominal discomfort or pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. Symptoms of gastritis and duodenal ulcers include burning pain in the upper abdomen, especially between meals, before breakfast, or after drinking orange juice or coffee. In severe cases, there may be tarry, black or bloody stools.

The most common symptoms of stomach problems

1) Pain. This is one of the most common symptoms of stomach problems. There are many causes of dull pain and the manifestations are complex. The causes include cold, qi stagnation, blood stasis, etc., and the manifestations include dull pain, stabbing pain, and colic.

2) Bloating. This is also one of the most common symptoms of stomach disease. If the spleen and stomach fail to function properly, or are blocked by cold or other factors, the gas in the stomach cannot be discharged in a timely and normal manner, thus causing bloating.

Treatment/gastric disease

Gastric disease is a common disease in internal medicine, but due to lack of awareness among some patients, the disease is often delayed and aggravated. Doctors say that some patients stop treatment without authorization after their symptoms are relieved and the pain disappears, but in fact the damaged gastric mucosa is not repaired. At the same time, many patients believe that stomach diseases are not contagious, but the Helicobacter pylori in the stomach that causes gastritis, peptic ulcers, etc. is actually contagious. Doctors remind people that if they experience stomach discomfort, they should undergo relevant examinations in a timely manner and then receive symptomatic treatment.

Gastric cancer: Surgery

Before performing surgery, you must first understand the condition of the disease. Since cancer may metastasize to lymph nodes, blood vessels, etc. in addition to the stomach wall, it is necessary to

The lesions, lymph nodes near the stomach and infiltrated organs are removed as much as possible. After fully investigating and understanding the extent of cancer spread, the depth of infiltration, and metastasis to organs such as lymph nodes, liver, and small intestine, the most appropriate surgical plan is decided. Surgical methods are generally divided into three major types.

This method is a local surgery performed only on small cancers that remain within the mucosa. Cancer at this stage has a low frequency of lymph node metastasis, so minimal resection is sufficient to achieve the goal of treatment. This approach preserves most of the stomach's functions.
