Patient's question:
At night, occasionally stomach acid dries up and vomits out water, what's the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Carbon dioxide can irritate the gastric mucosa, causing an increase in gastric acid secretion; the presence of gas also poses a continuous risk of exacerbating gastric perforation. You seem to have excess stomach acid. Generally, taking baking soda or antacid tablets can help reduce stomach acid concentration, as the carbon dioxide produced can irritate the gastric mucosa, causing an increase in gastric acid secretion; the presence of gas also poses a continuous risk of exacerbating gastric perforation. Aluminum hydroxide, on the other hand, does not produce carbon dioxide gas and instead forms aluminum chloride, which has a soothing effect, making it a more effective treatment. In addition to promptly treating stomach acid, friends with the condition should maintain a positive mindset to face the disease, as only then can they receive timely and appropriate treatment.
