Could abdominal rumbling and hiccupping be a sign of gastric ulcer?
Stomach rumbling and hiccupping may be symptoms caused by gastric ulcer, but they may also be related to non-disease factors such as improper diet and indigestion. It is recommended that patients seek medical attention promptly and undergo treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
Physiological Factors
1. Gastric ulcer: Gastric ulcer refers to inflammatory defects that occur in the mucosa of the inner wall of the stomach, usually caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. It can cause upper abdominal pain and discomfort, accompanied by loss of appetite and postprandial fullness.
2. Improper diet: If you consume too many gas-producing foods, such as sweet potatoes and soybeans, they may produce a large amount of gas, leading to abdominal distension and accompanied by gurgling sounds. In this case, it is necessary to adjust the diet structure, avoid eating gas-producing foods, and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits to promote gastrointestinal motility and improve the above situation.
Pathological Factors
1. Indigestion: Functional indigestion can lead to imbalance in intestinal flora, excessive proliferation of harmful bacteria in the intestine, and thus produce more gas, resulting in the above phenomenon. Under the guidance of a doctor, you can take probiotics such as Bifidobacterium Triple Live Bacteria Capsules and Lactobacillus Capsules to regulate intestinal flora. You can also use traditional Chinese medicines such as Jianwei Xiaoshi Oral Liquid and Baohe Pill to alleviate symptoms.
2. Other reasons: In addition to gastric ulcer, various diseases such as intestinal obstruction, acute cholecystitis, pancreatitis, and liver cancer can also cause the above symptoms. It is necessary to pay attention to differential diagnosis. In daily life, it is important to develop good habits, avoid overeating and eating spicy and stimulating foods to prevent worsening of the condition. At the same time, pay attention to rest and maintain sufficient sleep time, which is conducive to the recovery of the disease.
