Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling unwell. I often have constipation when using the restroom, and my abdomen also hurts severely, like a heavy downward pull, which is extremely painful. Then I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said this is a symptom of gastric prolapse and advised me to seek treatment quickly.What kind of help is needed: What are the dangers of gastric prolapse?
Doctor's answer:
The fixation of normal abdominal viscera primarily depends on three factors:1. The position of the diaphragm and its activity;
2. The strength of the abdominal muscles and the effect of the thickness of the subcutaneous fat layer of the abdominal wall;
3. The fixation effect of adjacent organs or certain related ligaments.
If any of these three factors reappear, it can easily lead to gastric prolapse. If this condition is not detected and treated in time, it may even cause bending of adjacent organs to the stomach, or even organ displacement.
