Patient's question:
Female, 84 years old, most likely feels stomach fullness after dinner, accompanied by sweating and chills.Doctor's answer:
As one ages, the peristalsis and absorption functions of the gastrointestinal tract weaken, and people with gastritis or gastric ulcers often experience bloating. When bloating occurs, you can gently massage the stomach area in a clockwise direction to physically stimulate peristalsis. At the same time, massage around the navel in an counterclockwise direction to enhance intestinal peristalsis, which can effectively relieve bloating and aid in bowel movements. In daily diet, avoid consuming irritating and sensitive foods. Maintain a regular eating schedule, chew food thoroughly, keep emotions stable, relax mentally, engage in sufficient physical activity, and balance work and rest.
