What if I get dizzy when my stomach gets upset?

The causes of stomach discomfort and dizziness may include gastrointestinal diseases, autonomic dysfunction and so on, which can be treated by improving lifestyle, taking medication, surgery and so on. 1. Improve lifestyle: patients should pay attention to diet, avoid eating cold, spicy and other stimulating food, greasy and other indigestible food and strong tea, strong coffee, etc., and quit smoking and drinking to avoid stimulation of the gastric mucosa, which may aggravate the symptoms. At the same time, pay attention to strengthen the movement, maintain a happy mood, sleep enough, avoid staying up late, nervousness, anxiety, etc., to enhance their physical fitness. 2. Take drugs: If it is caused by chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric cancer and other diseases, you can take acid-suppressing drugs such as omeprazole, bismuth potassium citrate and other gastric mucous membrane protection drugs, if the patient is accompanied by gastrointestinal bleeding, you can use growth inhibitors and other drugs to stop bleeding at the same time. If it is caused by acute gastroenteritis, antibiotic drugs such as amoxicillin, metronidazole, gentamicin, norfloxacin or antiviral drugs such as ribavirin can be taken for anti-infection treatment. If it is caused by autonomic dysfunction, you can take B vitamins, glutamine and other drugs to regulate nerve function, but also can take anti-anxiety drugs for treatment. 3.
