What should I do if I drink alcohol and vomit blood?

The causes of blood vomiting after drinking include gastric mucosal erosion bleeding, cirrhosis esophagogastric fundus varices bleeding, etc. Different causes have different solutions, and the treatment methods include general treatment, medication and surgery.
1. Gastric mucosal erosion and bleeding: alcohol can directly stimulate gastric mucosa, resulting in damage to the alkaline protective layer on its surface, and bleeding is caused by direct contact between gastric acid and gastric wall. Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole should be used to reduce the secretion of gastric acid, and misoprostol should be taken to repair the gastric mucosa. In the following daily life, reduce the intake of alcohol and avoid spicy diet to help recovery.
2. Bleeding from esophagogastric varices of cirrhosis: also caused by alcohol stimulation, but the amount of blood vomited by this patient is huge, and gastroscopy should be performed after controlling the bleeding and maintaining the stability of the body. In this type of patient with cirrhosis causing vomiting of blood, consideration should be given to the possibility of surgery to reduce the likelihood of rebleeding.
For the treatment of vomiting blood after drinking, it is important to correctly diagnose the cause of the disease. Examinations should be performed in a regular hospital to ensure that subsequent treatment is reliable. Medications should be used under the guidance of a medical professional and should not be used arbitrarily on one’s own.
