Patient's question:
Qi and blood deficiency, poor spleen and stomach, cold hands and feet. Recently, I have been taking Panax notoginseng powder to nourish my body. During last week's health check-up, I found that I have a gastric ulcer, which is quite severe. Can I still take Panax notoginseng powder? I am worried that the stimulation of the herbal powder may aggravate the ulcer and worsen the area of decay.Doctor's answer:
Hello, patients with gastric ulcers can also appropriately consume some Panax notoginseng powder. It does not have a significant impact on gastric ulcers, and it is not necessarily that all religious practices will irritate the ulcerated area. It still depends on the specific ingredients to implement clearly. Currently, it is appropriate to use a minimal amount after meals, while also using medications that protect the gastric mucosa and nourish the stomach, along with ulcer treatment medications, to collectively treat the condition.
