Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach aches sometimes with symptoms of burning and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it got better for a while, but then it started again. What are the symptoms of functional dyspepsia?Doctor's answer:
Functional dyspepsia is characterized by symptoms such as bloating, belching, early satiety, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, acid reflux, heartburn, and occasionally chest pain or discomfort in the sternum area. These symptoms are persistent or recurrent. Additionally, it may manifest as mental states like restlessness, anxiety, depression, insomnia (which responds well to treatment), palpitations, excessive sweating in the hands and feet, and low blood pressure, among others. Different treatment plans are formulated based on the specific condition.
