Patient's question:
Doctor, my father has been vomiting after eating recently and also frequently taking naps, accompanied by stomach pain. He also has high blood pressure. What should he do about the vomiting and stomach pain?Doctor's answer:
Note that if significant nausea symptoms accompanied by stomach pain reappear after a bowel movement, it is recommended to seek medical attention for a thorough examination at this age. Generally, it is advisable to undergo an endoscopy for a detailed check-up. If this is absolutely unbearable, an upper gastrointestinal series (barium meal) is also recommended to identify the cause and then provide timely treatment. For purely alleviating the current symptoms, medications such as mosapride may be considered.In addition to medication for stomach pain, patients need to pay attention to proper care, such as maintaining a balanced diet and keeping a positive mood.
