Patient's question:
In the past three days, I've woken up hungry and with stomach pain in the middle of the night every day. Eating something helps, but I've been eating my dinners fully recently, and there's really no difference from usual. My routine is quite regular, which is strange. I don't know what could be the reason.Doctor's answer:
It's best not to self-medicate blindly. You should promptly undergo an endoscopy for a thorough examination. During the treatment period, your diet should be based on light and easily digestible foods. Avoid hard and difficult-to-digest foods, and do not overeat. When patients face stomach pain, we should promptly implement symptomatic treatment principles and not avoid seeking medical attention. If the stomach pain persists despite treatment, it's important to promptly go to the hospital for further examination, and then adjust the treatment plan accordingly.
