Dyspeptic disorders are a whole group of disorders in the normal functioning of the digestive tract that are different in their origin and nature. This term is often used in a fairly broad sense and includes many subjective manifestations of gastrointestinal pathologies. Dyspeptic disorders can be caused by a variety of causes and factors, but the main symptoms are always the same.
As a rule, these are sharp pains and a feeling of discomfort in the abdominal cavity, often accompanied by heartburn and bloating. In especially severe cases, dyspepsia is manifested by nausea and even vomiting. Her symptoms are episodic rather than permanent. Dyspeptic disorders are familiar to most people. For example, after consuming a large amount of spicy food, heartburn often occurs - one of the signs of digestive disorders of the stomach.
Typically, these symptoms disappear on their own after a short period of time. But sometimes such manifestations can be a sign of serious gastrointestinal pathologies, which cause significant damage to the body, and therefore need urgent clinical treatment. Diseases of the stomach, the symptoms of which are expressed in the form of heartburn or severe pain in the abdominal cavity and right hypochondrium, can be gastritis, duodenitis, or even a duodenal ulcer.
But nevertheless, the most common dyspeptic manifestations are not ulcerative, but functional in nature, which implies a violation of digestion for no apparent reason. In practice, this means that dyspeptic disorders are not caused by gastrointestinal pathologies such as acid reflux, gastritis, and other mucosal injuries.
The exact cause of this kind of phenomena has not yet been elucidated, but in some cases it may be various bacterial infections. According to gastroenterologists, in sixty percent of cases of dyspepsia are associated with the activity of microorganisms belonging to the genus chylobacter pylori. These bacterial cultures are more than common. According to the WHO, every fourth inhabitant of the planet faces them, one way or another.
In the absence of proper diagnosis and clinical treatment, chylobacter pylori can become a companion of a person until the end of his life. Which will entail not only periodic bouts of dyspepsia, but also more serious digestive tract pathologies. Today, specialists call this bacterial culture among the main causes of the formation of peptic ulcers. In addition, the timely diagnosis of this microorganism is also complicated by the fact that it often affects the mucous membrane of the digestive tract without symptoms.
Treatment of indigestion and complications caused by the activity of chylobacter pylori involves the use of three main drugs: Omeprazole, Clarithromycin, and Metronidazole. The course of treatment takes no more than two weeks. This largely depends on the individual characteristics determined by diagnostic methods and consultation with a qualified gastroenterologist. But in any case, it is highly not recommended to take any drugs without prior coordination with a specialist of the appropriate profile.
