Symptoms and treatment of gastric bleeding

Symptoms of gastric bleeding mainly include hematemesis, black stool, dizziness, fatigue, palpitation, etc. 1. Hematemesis When the amount of bleeding in the stomach is large and accumulates rapidly, blood will be vomited through the mouth. This usually indicates that the bleeding is more serious and urgent. 2. Black stool After the blood is digested by the digestive tract, it will cause the stool to appear black. This is a common manifestation of gastric bleeding, but it needs to be differentiated from eating special foods. 3. Dizziness, fatigue, palpitation and massive bleeding can lead to anemia, thus causing the above symptoms. In severe cases, shock may even occur, such as blood pressure drop, unconsciousness, etc. Treatment for gastric bleeding generally includes drug therapy, endoscopic therapy, interventional therapy and surgical treatment. 1. Drug therapy can use drugs that inhibit gastric acid secretion, such as omeprazole, to reduce gastric acid damage to gastric mucosa, which is conducive to hemostasis and mucosal repair. Hemostatic drugs may also be used. 2. Endoscopic therapy can directly stop bleeding through endoscopy, such as electrocoagulation, hemostatic clips, etc., which are commonly used and effective methods. 3. Interventional therapy For severe bleeding that is ineffective or unsuitable for endoscopic treatment, vascular intervention can be used to find bleeding vessels and embolize them to stop bleeding. 4. Surgical treatment When other methods are ineffective to stop bleeding, surgery may be required to remove the lesion or perform vessel ligation. In short, gastric bleeding is a serious disease state, once found related symptoms should be timely medical treatment, detailed examination to clarify the cause and severity, and take appropriate treatment methods, at the same time during the treatment to closely observe the changes in the condition, actively cooperate with the treatment, in order to improve the treatment effect and prognosis.
