Flatulence needs to be recognized as being caused by a poor diet. It is also necessary to be alert to the fact that it may be caused by benign diseases of the stomach as well as malignant tumors and other diseases.
1. Improper diet: If the patient consumes too much stimulating and spicy food or overeats, it may irritate the gastrointestinal tract and affect its digestive function, thus causing the symptoms of flatulence.
2. Benign diseases of the stomach: such as gastritis, gastric ulcer and other diseases, the symptoms of flatulence will occur, accompanied by belching, acid reflux, stomach pain and other symptoms.
3. malignant tumors: for example, stomach cancer, when the tumor obstructs to the gastrointestinal tract, it may cause flatulence. Patients may also suffer from epigastric pain, lethargy, anorexia, weight loss, black stool and other symptoms.
If gastric flatulence cannot be relieved, patients are advised to go to the hospital in time to clarify the cause of the disease and then take symptomatic treatment under the guidance of doctors.
