Waking up with a burning sensation in the stomach may be caused by gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux, duodenal ulcer and other reasons.
1. Gastritis: Gastritis may lead to excessive secretion of gastric acid, which may cause obstacles to gastrointestinal peristalsis, affecting the gastric mucosa, and excessive gastric acid will erode the gastric lining, resulting in the phenomenon of burning sensation in the stomach.
2. Gastroesophageal reflux: Gastroesophageal reflux may be due to the weakening of sphincter contraction, the increase in intra-abdominal pressure, and thus the anti-reflux barrier function of the esophageal mucosa is impaired, which causes damage to the esophageal mucosa, thus giving rise to the phenomenon of burning sensation in the stomach.
3. duodenal ulcer: duodenal ulcer is mostly due to excessive secretion of gastric acid, gastric acid will cause damage to the gastric mucosa, when the erosion of the stomach wall, there will be a burning sensation in the stomach.
It is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time for examination, to clarify the cause of the disease and timely symptomatic treatment.
