What's wrong with my stomach?

We often feel a burning sensation in our stomach after drinking on an empty stomach. Sometimes we also experience a burning sensation in our stomach after eating spicy food. In this case, if you continue to drink and eat spicy food, it is likely to exceed your stomach's tolerance and you will experience an extremely strong burning sensation. It is said that if you have these eating habits on a daily basis, your chances of developing stomach problems will be dozens of times that of ordinary people.

Suggestions for stomach burn: 1. Don’t overeat . Long-term overeating will lead to excessive stomach acid. Especially avoid eating at night. In addition, you should also be careful not to eat too much alcohol, caffeine, spicy food and other highly stimulating foods. 2. Relax while eating . Eating while working will inevitably lead to a decline in the function of the stomach and esophagus. We should also strive to improve the stress of daily life. 3. Eliminate obesity . The increase of abdominal fat can easily lead to increased pressure on the stomach.

4. Be careful about your posture during and after meals. The posture of bending the back will cause the pressure on the stomach to become very high. You should not lean back after a meal, as this will cause the position of the stomach to change to above the esophagus, making it easy for gastric juice to reflux.

5. You can choose some antacids such as calcium carbonate tablets, aluminum hydroxide gel, etc. These drugs can neutralize gastric acid and eliminate the symptoms of stomach burning. However, if these drugs are taken for a long time, they will cause constipation or diarrhea. Therefore, experts recommend that you avoid taking drugs indiscriminately when the symptoms are unclear, and go to the hospital for detailed examination and timely treatment.
