My stomach has been bulging lately. I don't know what's going on.

Abdominal distension may be caused by functional dyspepsia, peptic ulcer, pyloric obstruction, etc.

1. Functional dyspepsia

Functional dyspepsia is mainly caused by high visceral sensitivity and excessive acid. Patients who cannot digest normally after eating may cause gastric contents to stay for a long time, so it may cause abdominal distension.

2. Peptic ulcer

patients infected with Helicobacter pylori or taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for a long time may cause peptic ulcer. At this time, patients with digestive tract mucosa damage, digestive function weakened, and abdominal distension may also occur after meals.

3. Patients with pyloric obstruction

are too narrow, gastrointestinal mucosa adhesion or tumor, polyps, inflammation and edema may cause pyloric obstruction. Gastric contents cannot enter the intestinal tract normally, which may lead to abdominal pain.
