Patient's question:
After giving birth, I experienced frequent stomach cramps one month later, which caused me great pain.When I had stomach cramps, I promptly went to the pharmacy and took 6542. 20mg. It still hurt terribly and lasted for 4.5 hours. Later, I was given Weifusan to relieve the pain.
Could you please explain what caused it, how to prevent it, and how to treat it?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, gastritis is a disease that involves the spasm of stomach muscles, primarily characterized by upper abdominal pain, vomiting, etc. The three major factors that cause gastritis are environmental factors, genetic factors, and psychological and physiological factors, among others. Avoid drinking large amounts of cold beverages, as a significant temperature difference can strongly stimulate the gastrointestinal tract, leading to sudden spasms. Avoid eating bananas on an empty stomach. Bananas contain not only potassium, which aids sleep, but also a large amount of magnesium. If consumed on an empty stomach, it can cause a sudden increase in magnesium levels in the blood, and magnesium is one of the sensitive elements that affect heart function. It is best not to self-medicate; instead, seek medical examination at a hospital before taking any medication.
