These four types of stomachaches must not be rubbed

In life, many people like to rub their stomachs with their hands when they have stomachache. Doing so may relieve stomach pain caused by gastrointestinal spasms, but for many diseases, this will not only fail to relieve pain, but will also aggravate the condition.

1. When you have gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcer, if you drink too much

It often causes ulcer rupture and perforation or rupture and bleeding of blood vessels in the ulcer, causing the patient to feel severe abdominal pain. If people rub their abdomen at this time, the mechanical stimulation will cause further damage to the ulcer, aggravate the condition, and even endanger life.

2. Acute suppurative peritonitis and appendicitis are common diseases in internal medicine.

Although the abdomen will be painful when the disease occurs, the inflammation is relatively limited. As long as medical treatment is sought early, the inflammation can often be effectively controlled. However, if people rub the abdomen to relieve pain at this time, the inflammation will spread faster, and rubbing the abdomen is tantamount to "adding fuel to the flames" of the disease.

3. Ascaris clumping or intestinal adhesion and twisting, etc.

It can also lead to poor flow of intestinal contents and mechanical intestinal obstruction. At this time, if you rub your abdomen to relieve pain without any understanding, the ascaris will be squeezed and run around, causing biliary ascariasis or even intestinal perforation. Intestinal obstruction caused by other reasons will also be aggravated by abdominal rubbing, and the pain will be aggravated.

In addition, abdominal pain caused by cholecystitis, liver and spleen rupture, etc., rubbing the abdomen to relieve pain is like adding insult to injury and adding fuel to the fire.

Abdominal pain can be caused by a variety of diseases, so you should never use abdominal massage to relieve pain. If abdominal pain occurs, you should go to the hospital immediately and take necessary measures to treat it after the doctor makes a clear diagnosis.
