Patient's question:
I have a sensitive stomach and need to take stomach medication on a long-term basis. Recently, a friend of mine was diagnosed with gastric prolapse, which should also be a type of stomach disease. My friend asked me to pay more attention to it as well. Until now, I still don't know what gastric prolapse is.Hello, what are the symptoms of gastric prolapse? Is it difficult to treat?
Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, the main effect of gastric prolapse is poor gastric supplementation, which may lead to recurrent stomach bloating and weak gastrointestinal motility. It is recommended to undergo an endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis. If there is significant gastric prolapse, treatment may be considered. For gastric prolapse, surgical treatment to remove a portion of the stomach is recommended. If the gastric prolapse is not significant, long-term oral medication to aid absorption may be necessary.
