The stomach is a very important part of the human body, it can secrete gastric juice, digest food, and absorb nutrients in it, thereby maintaining the physiological operation of the body.
However, the pace of life in today's society is getting faster and faster, and many people often have habits such as overeating, irregular meals, spicy diet, etc., which leads to a gradual decline in stomach bloating function, and even induces gastritis, stomach ulcers and other diseases.
However, fortunately, when stomach disease occurs, patients have abnormal physical manifestations, such as the 4 mentioned below, even if only one is noticed, it is necessary to rush to the hospital for gastroscopy to avoid continuous aggravation of the disease.
1. Abdominal pain
Abdominal pain is an abnormal manifestation, especially in the recent period of frequent occurrence, and as time goes on, the pain sensation becomes more and more obvious, it is necessary to consider whether it is caused by stomach disease.
Because clinical survey data show that when gastritis, gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer appear, more than 60% of patients have different degrees of abdominal pain.
Coupled with the lack of healthy diet in daily life, once the intake of too stimulating food, it will cause paroxysmal abdominal pain. = At this time, everyone must hurry to the hospital for examination and find out the cause of the disease after targeted treatment, in order to prevent the stomach from being continuously injured.
2. Heartburn and acid regurgitation
Acid reflux heartburn is the most typical two manifestations when stomach disease occurs, because after a problem in the stomach, the secretion of stomach acid is abnormal, and the peristalsis ability of stomach bloating becomes poor, so that food cannot be consumed in time, and in the case of a large amount of accumulation, it will regurgitate to the esophagus.
At the same time, acidic substances in the stomach may also enter the alkaline esophagus, and then corrode the mucosa of the esophagus, resulting in a fire burning in the stomach, which is called heartburn.
3. Bad breath
When it comes to the symptoms of bad breath, many people will preconceived that it is caused by inadequate cleaning, so they do not pay attention to it, but as everyone knows, the occurrence of stomach diseases is also easy to cause this symptom.
Especially after Helicobacter pylori infection, it will first reduce the digestion capacity of the stomach and intestines, causing indigestion problems, and the bacteria will also produce more secretions, which will bring odor;
Under the multiple influences of food fermentation and bacterial secretions, an unpleasant smell will be emitted from the mouth.
So remind everyone that if you have recently had bad breath and still haven't improved after brushing your teeth and gargling, please go to the hospital for a stomach examination.
4. Abnormal hiccups after meals
Burping after eating is indeed a very normal physiological manifestation, but it only occurs once in a while, but if you burp continuously after just finishing eating, you need to be highly vigilant.
Because the reason for this result is not only related to indigestion, stomach cancer can also cause symptoms of hiccups when it occurs.
Because the presence of cancer cells tends to affect the nearby diaphragm and vagus nerve, which in turn prompts patients to burp non-stop, this manifestation is medically called "stubborn hiccups".
All in all, if you want to understand the health of the stomach, you should first pay more attention to the performance of the body, if there is an inexplicable mention of the above mentioned frequent hiccups, bad breath acid reflux, heartburn and abdominal pain and other symptoms, it is likely to be a distress signal sent by stomach disease, at this time we need to hurry to the hospital to do gastroscopy, in order to avoid missing the best treatment time for the disease.
