Patient's question:
Stayed in the hospital for half a month. After discharge, focused on taking medicine for a month, everything is normal. Recently, I might drink more alcohol. This morning when I went to bed, I felt my stool had blood in it. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
It can be confirmed that it is gastritis with duodenal ulcer bleeding. It may be caused by factors such as alcohol consumption, dietary stress, drug interference, or infections. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal pain, constipation, and reduced appetite. It is recommended to visit the gastroenterology department of a hospital for an endoscopy and a routine stool test with occult blood test to facilitate diagnosis. If diagnosed, medications such as Gastronorm, Lansoprazole tablets, and Lixun Dele powder can be taken for treatment. The diet should avoid extremely cold, spicy, and irritating foods. In addition to treating stomach pain, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and speed up recovery.
