Generally mild gastroptosis is not accompanied by gastritis, and there are no obvious symptoms. Moderate and severe gastroptosis or gastritis can cause delayed gastric emptying and food retention in the stomach, which makes patients feel full, belching, nausea, abdominal distension, aggravation after meals and indigestion. Patients often complain about "weak stomach" and "soft stomach" and dare not eat more. Because of the obvious symptoms after meals, patients' long-term loss of appetite and emaciation aggravate the degree of gastroptosis, and the commonly used gastric drugs such as antacids and spasmolytics often have no obvious effect. At present, the treatment of gastroptosis is mainly diet conditioning, traditional Chinese medicine and comprehensive treatment.
1. Eat less: patients with gastroptosis have weak digestive function, so don't overeat every meal, but eat less and more meals, 4-6 meals a day is appropriate, the main meal should not be too much, supplemented by vegetables, and milk, rice porridge, biscuits, soy milk and so on can be added to the meal. As the saying goes: "Eat 80% full and have a good appetite when you are old", which is the truth.
2. Soft food: Try not to eat fried food, avoid cold and hard food, mainly eat vegetable leaves, limit peel and coarse fiber vegetables such as leeks and celery, eat less fat, but pay attention to adequate intake of vitamins and protein, and eat noodles, porridge, small flower rolls, steamed bread, milk, lean eggs and fish, and eat fruits and miscellaneous grains in moderation.
3. Light food: mainly light food, avoid spicy condiments such as Chili oil, mustard and pepper. Eat less greasy and heavy food, try not to use strong tea and coffee, quit smoking and drinking, and be careful not to eat sour, sweet and salty food and fruit.
4. Chew slowly: Chewing slowly is very important for patients with gastroptosis. Chewing slowly makes saliva and food fully mixed, which is beneficial to digestion and absorption. Chewing slowly avoids the excessive expansion of the stomach, which is beneficial to gastric emptying, reducing the pressure on the stomach and reducing the load on the stomach. Chewing slowly can relieve the symptoms of fullness in the upper abdomen after meals.
5. Rest after meals: You should lie down and rest for more than 30 minutes after meals. Don't walk a hundred paces after a meal, and you can't do strenuous activities after a meal. After a meal, the food in the stomach increases the gravity in the stomach due to upright and exercise, which can aggravate the degree of gastroptosis, but physical exercise is still very important at ordinary times. Proper and gradual physical activity is helpful to enhance gastric motility and gastric tension, and increasing gastric peristalsis will reduce gastroptosis.
6. Diet balance: Due to the slow gastrointestinal peristalsis of patients with gastroptosis, coupled with the consumption of fine and refined food, constipation is easy to occur, so pay attention to drinking water, and you can drink honey water, fruit juice and fruit meat in moderation to keep your stool smooth.
In addition, maintaining a relaxed, peaceful and happy attitude is also the key to treating patients with gastroptosis. To avoid mental stress and anxiety and overwork, diet conditioning needs long-term persistence. Each patient can also sum up a set of recipes suitable for him according to his eating habits, so that the curative effect will be better.
To treat gastroptosis, it is important to take care of yourself. Strengthen exercise and strengthen physical fitness. This is the key to cure the disease. Appropriate participation in sports activities can not only exercise abdominal muscles and enhance physical fitness, but also enhance gastrointestinal secretion and peristalsis, stimulate appetite and improve digestion and absorption capacity. The frequency and time of exercise should depend on your physical condition, or take a walk after meals, or practice the horizontal bar in the morning, so don't feel nervous and overtired. After each exercise, I feel refreshed, my appetite is greatly increased, and my sleep is sweet, indicating that the amount of exercise is appropriate. Otherwise, it means that the amount of exercise is too large and must be adjusted in time.
Patients with gastroptosis should be nursed back to health regularly and eat less and more meals. Eat 3-5 meals a day, 7-80% full each time, chew slowly. It is necessary to control cold foods, especially cold water, cold dishes, lettuce and raw food. When cooking soup, add some seasonings such as onion, ginger, cinnamon, fennel and pepper. Patients with gastroptosis are prone to nutritional deficiency due to the limitation of intake and food types. Therefore, the diet should be rich in protein and easy to digest. Avoid indigestible foods, such as fried and fried meat, bacon, dried fish, sticky cakes and leeks.
