Upper and lower dyspnea is usually considered to be due to functional dyspepsia caused by abdominal distension with bloating, abdominal pain and belching. Most of them are caused by obstruction of the digestive tract, weak gastrointestinal power or chronic gastritis, and may also be caused by respiratory diseases such as chest tightness.
1. Upper and lower dyspnea caused by intestinal obstruction. Most of the intestinal obstruction manifests as abdominal pain, vomiting, abdominal distension, and stopping of gas and bowel movement. If it is mechanical intestinal obstruction, don’t blindly apply laxatives, you should promptly release the cause of obstruction.
2. Upper and lower non-ventilation caused by weak gastrointestinal power. After the patient eats, most of the gastric power is insufficient to produce the upper and lower noncommunication. It is usually manifested as fidgeting, fullness and bloating after meals, and inability to eat and drink. Patients can follow the doctor’s instructions to take domperidone and other drugs to relieve.
3. Chronic gastritis and other diseases caused by the upper and lower ventilation. Chronic gastritis patients usually show nausea, vomiting and other symptoms. Patients need to take drugs to relieve symptoms, such as belladonna tablets, metoclopramide and other drugs.
4. Respiratory diseases: lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary heart disease, interstitial fibrosis, pulmonary embolism, pneumothorax, etc. can be characterized by chest tightness, dyspnea, and the feeling of being unable to breathe up and down, which need to be further evaluated according to the patient’s symptoms, medical history, and chest CT examination.
There may be other reasons for the patient’s upper and lower dyspnea, which should be examined by a doctor in time to clarify the cause of the disease and then treat the cause of the disease.
