Stomach pain is one of the common digestive disorders, with symptoms such as bloating, heartburn, burning hot or adding pain to the epigastric region.
According to the Mayo Clinic, in addition to the cause caused by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori or anti-inflammatory drugs, many cases of stomach pain come from daily activities that patients subjectively ignore.
One of the common culprits is the habit of skipping meals or eating erratically, especially breakfast. When the stomach secrete flavor but do not have food to digest, the mucous layer is eroded, easily leading to ulcers.
Second, prolonged stress directly affects the intestinal nervous system. Cortisol - stress hormone - increases stomach acid, reduces blood circulation to the mucous membranes, making the body susceptible to digestive disorders, bloating and abdominal pain.
The next mistake was to overuse NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen, aspirin) pain relievers. These drugs can damage the mucous membranes and cause gastric bleeding if taken in the wrong dose or on an empty stomach.
In addition, eating too quickly, eating while working, drinking a lot of coffee, beer, sour - spicy - hot foods are all factors that cause unusual stomach cramps, increase acid secretion and worsen symptoms.
Experts recommend building the habit of eating on time, chewing thoroughly, getting enough sleep and reducing stress. If symptoms persist, see a doctor early to detect HP bacteria and get appropriate treatment.
