Patient's question:
My girlfriend never eats much, no matter how delicious the food is. She can only eat a few bites before stopping. Sometimes, when she forces herself to eat a few bites, she feels very bloated and nauseous, and soon vomits it all up. She has also lost some weight recently, and it makes me feel so heartbroken. I want to take her to the hospital to check if she has a stomach ulcer, but she refuses to go.Doctor's answer:
Common symptoms of gastric ulcer include: pain on the left side of the midline of the upper abdomen or the upper left abdomen, weight gain, bleeding. In addition to some atypical symptoms, such as loss of appetite, postprandial fullness, nausea, and dry heaving. Some patients may have no symptoms at all and only be discovered to have a gastric ulcer by chance. It is recommended that you take your girlfriend to the hospital for a thorough examination and diagnosis. Additionally, during the treatment of gastric ulcer, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very crucial. The patient should pay close attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries. It is hoped that the above answer can assist you.
