Is it a stomach ulcer that makes you feel uncomfortable when you are hungry?

Stomach discomfort may be caused by physiological factors, or pathological factors, such as gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, etc. If symptoms persist or worsen, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly.

1. Physiological factors

When hungry the stomach acid secretion increases, it can irritate the gastric mucosa, which can cause symptoms of stomach upset. This condition generally does not require special treatment and can be improved after eating.

2. Pathological factors

1. Gastritis: It refers to the inflammatory reaction of the gastric mucosa, which is usually related to Helicobacter pylori infection, and patients will have symptoms such as epigastric pain and postprandial fullness.Drugs such as omeprazole enteric-coated tablets, amoxicillin capsules, and colloidal bismuth capsules can be taken under the guidance of a doctor.

2. Gastroesophageal reflux disease: due to the decline of anti-reflux function and the reduction of esophageal clearance ability, food and gastric juice will reflux into the throat through the esophagus, causing patients to have symptoms such as heartburn and reflux. Rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated tablets, itopride hydrochloride tablets and other drugs can be used for treatment according to the doctor's instructions.

In addition to this, it may also be related to diseases such as duodenal gastric ulcer and peptic ulcer, which can also occur as a result. In daily life, we should pay attention to a reasonable diet and avoid eating spicy and greasy food, so as not to burden the gastrointestinal tract and not be conducive to recovery.
