Patient's question:
My mother is 68 years old this year. Recently, she has been feeling like her head is throbbing. However, since my mother has been hospitalized for a relatively long time recently, she is not very keen on concentrating on hospitalization and intravenous infusion. She wants to consult whether it is necessary to receive intravenous infusion or if taking medication would be okay.Doctor's answer:
One, develop good lifestyle habits: Eat less and more frequently, only eat until 70% full. Eat well in the morning, eat sufficiently at noon, and eat lightly in the evening. Avoid overeating.Two, change dietary habits: Eat meals on time, sit down to eat dinner instead of standing or squatting. Avoid spicy, fried, smoked foods like grilled meat, as well as overly acidic or cold foods that cause strong irritation. Do not drink alcohol, limit consumption of strong tea, coffee, etc. Eat more vegetables and rough fiber foods like celery, mushrooms, etc. If the condition of gastric ulcer is severe, seek immediate symptomatic treatment and use appropriate medication, otherwise it may lead to a recurrence of the ulcer. Additionally, patients need to pay attention to their diet and psychological care.
