Patient's question:
Pain in the stomach for two years, slight pressure feels hard with mild pain, feels like there's a hard lump in the stomach. At night, unable to sleep on the side due to pulling pain. Pain reappears after meals. In high school, the diet was irregular, eating a lot after 11 p.m. every night without restraint. At that time, there was a lack of exercise and gradual weight gain, especially increased abdominal fat. Now the pain frequency has increased. How to deal with mild stomach pain?Doctor's answer:
It is caused by damp-heat stagnation in the spleen and stomach, falling within the category of chronic stomach conditions. If not treated correctly, the condition will progressively worsen. Conventional treatment methods can only alleviate symptoms, but the stomach mucosa continues to be constantly invaded. Not only does it fail to achieve a cure, but some stomach medications may even further exacerbate the damage to the stomach mucosa, leading to chronic, untreatable stomach conditions that may even worsen over time.In daily life, attention should be paid to a balanced nutritional intake. Meals should be taken at regular times and in appropriate quantities—avoiding both excessive hunger and overeating. Cold and hard foods should be chewed thoroughly and slowly.
In addition to taking medication to treat stomach pain, patients must also prioritize proper care, including a suitable diet and maintaining a positive mood. At the same time, patients should pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis.
