Flatulence and farting caused by drinking milk is mainly categorized into physiological and pathological factors. Physiological factors are mainly seen in drinking cold milk or eating indigestible food at the same time, which can be relieved by improving dietary habits. Pathological factors are mainly seen in lactose intolerance, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic gastritis and other diseases, which can be relieved through medication.
1. Physiological factors:
After drinking cold milk or eating indigestible food at the same time, the intestinal tract will be easily stimulated, resulting in gastrointestinal dysfunction, which will lead to abdominal flatulence. At this time, the symptoms can be relieved by drinking hot milk, eating easy-to-digest food and other measures, if still no improvement, oral promotion of gastrointestinal dynamics of the drug, such as mosapride, domperidone and so on.
2. Pathologic factors:
(1) Lactose intolerance: also known as lactase deficiency. Due to the lack of lactase in the patient’s body or lactase insufficiency, a large amount of lactose in milk can not be decomposed, resulting in symptoms such as bloating and farting. At this time, lactase or probiotic preparations (such as Bifidobacterium triplex, lactobacillus tablets, etc.) can be taken for treatment, while milk consumption is prohibited.
(2) Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): In some patients, the intestinal sensitivity to milk increases or the intestinal muscle movement is abnormal, and after eating milk, the milk is broken down in the intestinal tract, resulting in bloating and farting. At this time, probiotics can be supplemented to improve intestinal function. If accompanied by abdominal pain, oral antispasmodic drugs, such as pivoxyl bromide or scopolamine, etc., if accompanied by diarrhea, oral antidiarrheal drugs, such as atropine or loperamide, etc..
(3) chronic gastroenteritis: due to inflammation stimulation, the patient’s gastrointestinal tract of milk digestion and absorption ability to decline, resulting in milk in the gastrointestinal tract for a long time to stay, harmful bacteria fermentation and decomposition, producing a large amount of gas and flatulence and farting. At this time, milk intake should be limited, and in severe cases, oral omeprazole can be used to protect the gastric mucosa, mosapride to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis in order to improve the symptoms.
The above medications are recommended to be used under the guidance of a medical professional. When the symptoms of flatulence and flatulence continue to be unrelieved, you should consult a doctor in time to find out the cause of the disease under the guidance of a professional physician and carry out targeted treatment to avoid delaying the condition.
