What about weight loss caused by stomach problems?


Healing hearts, one patient at a time.
The weight loss caused by stomach disease should be treated according to the cause. No matter what the cause of stomach disease is, it will eventually affect the motility and digestive function of the stomach. If there is erosive gastritis, it should be treated with acid inhibitors and gastric mucosa protectors. If the erosive focus is improved, the digestive absorption function of the stomach will naturally be good, so it will help promote the digestion and absorption of food. For example, gastric ulcer should take acid suppressants, gastric mucosa protective agents, and the course of treatment generally to reach 4-8 weeks, if the ulcer healed gastric digestion and absorption function is naturally good. But if there is gastric cancer, it should be considered surgical resection.
