What are the treatment methods for digestive disorders

There is no one-size-fits-all treatment plan for digestive disorders. The most important prerequisite is to first rule out organic problems such as ulcers, Helicobacter pylori infection, and hepatobiliary and pancreatic lesions through medical examination, and then make personalized adjustments based on your own triggers. Blindly following the trend of eating stomach nourishing products and probiotics may slow down the recovery.

An Internet operator girl who came to me for consultation a while ago is a typical example. She suffered from bloating, constipation and diarrhea for three to four months in a row. She followed the trend and bought two probiotics from Internet celebrities and took them for almost two months, but they were of no use at all. She went to the hospital for a breath test and found out that Helicobacter pylori was positive. After sterilization according to the course of treatment, the symptoms disappeared by 70%. The remaining mild post-meal flatulence was completely cured in less than half a month.

If there are no organic problems after the investigation, they are basically functional problems caused by long-term bad living habits, so there is no need to be too anxious. Many people eat porridge and noodles to nourish their stomach whenever they get sick. In fact, there are different opinions in the academic circles. Many gastroenterologists believe that long-term consumption of such overly refined soft and rotten food will actually make the gastrointestinal peristalsis and digestion ability "use or lose", which will actually reduce Low long-term tolerance. I met an old patient before. He drank white porridge for more than three months. Later, he suffered from acid reflux after eating some stir-fried green leafy vegetables. Later, he slowly added steamed pumpkin and boiled lean meat back to a normal diet. On the contrary, his gastrointestinal adaptability became stronger and stronger.

There are also many people whose digestive disorders are entirely caused by emotions. They get stomachaches and diarrhea before exams or when working on projects, and have nothing to do in their free time. In this case, don’t focus on the gastrointestinal tract. It’s better to straighten out the root of the emotions first than anything else. I have a friend who is a high school teacher. She used to suffer from acid reflux on time every final marking week. She had three gastroscopy tests and no problem was found. Later, she stood up and walked for five minutes every hour between marking and doing abdominal breathing. She did not suffer from acid reflux at the end of that year. To put it bluntly, the gastrointestinal tract is a "barometer" of emotions. If you are anxious and tense every day, it is equivalent to giving it the wrong instructions, and it will naturally not be able to work well.

In fact, the gastrointestinal tract is not that delicate and not that strong. It is like an old friend who has been with you for many years. Don’t always irritate it, and don’t always treat it as fragile and dare not give it anything to eat. There is no need to copy the list of stomach-nourishing foods on the Internet, everyone People's tolerance levels vary greatly. You may feel bloated if you eat yam that makes others feel comfortable. Nothing will happen to you if you drink ice milk that others cannot touch. If you find it troublesome, just jot down a simple diet note. If you eat something that makes you feel uncomfortable, just avoid it next time. It is more reliable than any expensive prescription. If there is still no improvement after a month or two of adjustment, you still need to go to the hospital for a review in time, so as not to miss potential problems.
