There are situations when a patient examining the abdominal cavity reveals bile in the stomach. Her treatment involves taking certain medications that are prescribed exclusively by a doctor.
Our main task is to explain why bile is thrown into the stomach, the treatment of which is better to start immediately. So, the reasons for the release of bile, doctors distinguish the following:
- Inflammatory diseases that occur in the liver or bladder (e.g., hepatitis or cholecystitis).
- Problems with patency of the bile ducts, which lead to the flow of bile into the stomach.
- Bile in the stomach, the treatment of which should begin with the elimination of the cause, can also appear as a result of failures in compression of the muscles located between the duodenum and the stomach.
- Violations of the diet (irregular meals, an excess of it). In this situation, an excess of it from the duodenum is sent back to the stomach, and already with bile.
As soon as you notice that you have any abnormalities in the functioning of the stomach, in particular, bile in the stomach, do not hesitate, but you should immediately consult a gastroenterologist.
As a rule, bile in the stomach, the treatment of which must be carried out under the supervision of a doctor, also has additional symptoms:
- An unpleasant burning sensation, some pain in the stomach.
- The appearance of acidic heartburn, which has a taste of bitterness.
- Frequent burping with air or with a bitter taste.
There are situations when the release of bile into the stomach, the treatment of which can be complex, can occur as the main sign of the development of peptic ulcer. Therefore, you need to conduct a thorough examination, which includes taking tests (clinical and biochemical blood tests, my general analysis), an ultrasound of the internal organs in order to correctly identify the cause. Only after this should treatment be prescribed.
Further treatment may also include periodic examinations, which will have to regulate the degree of elimination of bile from the stomach. This is done in order to determine the degree of effectiveness of the chosen method of eliminating the disease.
As a rule, bile in the stomach, the treatment of which also provides additional methods, can be eliminated subject to certain rules of behavior:
- You need to eat regularly and in fractional portions.
- Avoid eating fried foods. It is better to eat boiled, baked, stewed food.
- It is not recommended to abuse alcohol, it is better to quit smoking. It should be limited to a minimum, and it is better to completely exclude the use of chocolate and baking, fat rich broths, juices and any food with high fat content.
Remember that bile in the stomach, the treatment of which necessarily requires compliance with these rules, will not be eliminated only with the help of medications. Even if this happens, the risk of its recurrence is very high. Moreover, the degree of the disease may be more neglected.
Regarding the intake of drugs, it should be said that they should be focused on the normalization of the motor activity of the stomach and intestines.
If you have already been diagnosed with diseases such as peptic ulcer of the stomach or duodenum, any diseases of the gallbladder or liver, you need to check periodically for the presence of bile in the stomach. Because such pathologies provoke its appearance. Therefore, taking medications and their amount also depends on these factors.
Remember that self-medication is unacceptable in a similar situation. Only after a comprehensive examination and only under the supervision of a doctor should you take medication. Bile in the stomach, the treatment of which is carried out independently, is not eliminated, but leads to the development of more serious consequences.
