Patient's question:
Every night at 12 a.m., I go to sleep, and at 5 a.m., my stomach hurts and wakes me up. When I wake up, I go to eat breakfast, but after eating, I feel a bit of stomach bloating and can't eat much. Is this a symptom of a stomach disease?Doctor's answer:
Gastric diseases are actually a general term for many conditions. They share similar symptoms, such as discomfort, pain in the upper abdomen, post-meal fullness, belching, acid reflux, and even nausea and dry heaving, etc. You must go to the hospital for a check-up to determine exactly what type of gastric disease you have so that you can receive targeted treatment. In daily life, it is essential to develop good eating habits—eat less cold and spicy food, reduce rice consumption, and increase the intake of noodles while drinking more warm water. You can also consume more raw peanuts. Gastric diseases are not easily cured. Friends suffering from this condition should always maintain a positive attitude.
