Waking up with a feeling of pressure in the stomach is considered to be a possible cause of indigestion, gastric ulcers, tumors in the stomach, and other factors. Depending on the cause, medication as well as surgery can be given.
1. Indigestion: If you eat too much before going to bed, or eat too much greasy, stimulating food before going to bed, after dinner, the activity is small, bed rest will increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, gastrointestinal peristalsis slows down, the food in the stomach is not well-digested, resulting in waking up with a feeling of pressure in the stomach. You can take oral domperidone, mosapride and other drugs to promote gastric power to relieve the symptoms.
2. Gastric ulcer: After the food has been digested overnight, the stomach is in a vacant state after waking up, and the gastric acid can directly stimulate the gastric mucosa of the ulcerated surface, so you may feel a sense of pressure in the stomach. You can take oral omeprazole, rabeprazole and other drugs acid inhibitors, bismuth potassium citrate and other gastric mucosal protectants for treatment, and if combined with Helicobacter pylori you can use metronidazole and other antibiotics for treatment.
3. Stomach tumor: Stomach tumor may lead to the manifestation of pressure in the stomach, and also accompanied by the symptoms of emaciation and loss of appetite. This condition is usually treated by surgery.
All of the above medications should be applied under medical supervision. If the feeling of pressure in the stomach persists after waking up and cannot be relieved, it is recommended to go to the hospital as soon as possible, and give relevant examinations and treatments under the guidance of the doctor.
