Patient's question:
I haven't eaten breakfast for consecutive weeks, and I also don't eat much at noon. I always feel extremely bloated in my stomach, as if I'm always stuffed to the brim. It feels like no matter what I eat, it can't be absorbed and just gets stuck in my stomach. Sometimes I even dry heave and feel extremely nauseous. What should I do about stomach bloating, indigestion, and vomiting?Doctor's answer:
Gastrointestinal issues involve problems throughout the body, primarily related to excessive mental stress, long-term sleep deprivation with beer consumption, and irregular dietary and sleep patterns. Therefore, it's essential to address the root causes of the problem by adjusting lifestyle and emotions. Maintain a calm and open-minded attitude, focusing on gains and losses without holding grudges. A diet should be light and simple, with radishes and cabbage being the most beneficial for the stomach. Avoid meat, tea, extremely cold, hard, spicy, and difficult-to-digest foods. Do not stay up late drinking beer and eat meals at regular times. If these measures are followed, the condition improves significantly. Otherwise, even if you take high-end Western medicine to kill helicobacter pylori and repair the mucosa, while still drinking alcohol, staying up late, and constantly scheming, your condition will not improve. Moderate exercise, such as hiking, ice skating, and walking, are excellent ways to relax the body and mind. Combining this with traditional Chinese medicine treatment can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
