Patient's question:
In August 2016, I began experiencing discomfort all over my body, chest and back pain, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. When I went to the hospital for X-rays and ultrasound, no cause was found. It wasn't until I had an endoscopy that I discovered gastritis, duodenitis, poor appetite, and occasional between the ribs. During the National Day holiday, I noticed symptoms of prostatitis—feeling weak, lower back and leg pain, overall fatigue, poor sleep, lack of energy, nervousness. What medicine should I use?Doctor's answer:
How do you take oral medication, and what is the specific name? Based on your endoscopic examination results, you have gastritis and inflammation of the duodenal bulb. This is primarily caused by excessive gastric acid secretion and other irritants leading to inflammation of the gastric mucosa, which may manifest as discomfort such as stomach pain and bloating. It is recommended that you follow a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and take oral medications such as omeprazole and Daxi. Maintain regular meals. Additionally, drink plenty of water, urinate frequently, receive appropriate anti-inflammatory treatment, and implement supplementary treatments such as blood-activating therapy and physical massage to alleviate symptoms.
