Patient's question:
I've always had some stomach problems. Yesterday, I ate a corn cob, and it might be that the corn made me sick. My stomach has been very bloated, not absorbing well, and I feel a bit like vomiting. It's been constantly acid refluxing. I want to ask what the situation is with bloating, indigestion, and vomiting?Doctor's answer:
Gastrointestinal issues are related to systemic problems, primarily linked to excessive mental stress, long-term sleep deprivation with beer consumption and overwork, as well as irregular eating and sleeping habits. Therefore, it is 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 consuming meat, tea, extremely cold, hard, spicy, or hard-to-digest foods. Do not stay up late drinking beer and eat meals at regular times. If all these measures are followed, there will be no purely gastrointestinal problems, as they are often interconnected with other organs. You should undergo a detailed examination of the liver, spleen, kidneys, and pancreas via ultrasound. In 90% of cases, there are issues with the gallbladder or liver. Treatment should focus on the gallbladder and stomach, or a combined approach targeting both the liver and stomach. At the same time, enhance the immune function of the digestive system to improve the body's disease resistance. Treatment and care should be comprehensive.
