Stomach pain suddenly causing blood vomiting with a foul smell today. What should I do?

Patient's question:

Stomach pain, suddenly vomited a little blood today, the vomit was foul-smelling. I didn't care when I had stomach pain before. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

If you cough up two mouthfuls of blood that are coffee-colored, it might be caused by stomach bleeding. If the coffee-colored blood is vomited out in a dry cough, it could be gastrointestinal bleeding. If the blood is fresh and coughed up, it should be respiratory bleeding. However, since you have a history of stomach problems, gastrointestinal bleeding could be severe. It is recommended to seek hospital treatment as soon as possible, which may include medication to stop bleeding and protect the stomach lining. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary.
During the treatment for stomach pain, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and mental state are also very important. The patient must avoid excessive mental stress to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of the stomach pain.
