Patient's question:
At 9 PM last night, intermittent pain began, feeling a bit like a cramp. I couldn't sit straight, and it lasted for about 3 hours. Later, I fell asleep. When I woke up this morning, the pain was still there, just not as severe as last night. Now it's hurting again. How should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
The main consideration is that the stomach pain is caused by gastritis or an ulcer. Currently, focus on rest and nutrition, maintain a good dietary habit, and avoid eating extremely cold, greasy, and irritating foods. Based on your current condition, you can take Gastritis Decoction, Weiyou, Chicken Gizzard, and Omeprazole for treatment. Alternatively, you can receive intravenous drip treatment with Cefixime, Baking Soda, Energy, and Metronidazole. If necessary, go to the hospital for a gastroscopy examination for diagnosis. For the patient, if the stomach pain is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be administered with appropriate medication. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of stomach pain. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a positive mood to avoid exacerbating the condition.
