If it s a stomach ulcer, what are the complications or not?

1. Bleeding: Bleeding is caused by the ulcer that erodes the blood vessels around the ulcer to a certain extent, causing the blood vessels to rupture. The amount of bleeding and the degree of harm to the patient's life depend on the size of the damaged blood vessels, when the ulcer damages the capillaries, it is generally less harmful to the patient, and it is not easy to be found, and it is only found during the fecal occult blood test; When larger blood vessels are damaged, hematemesis or black stools may occur, or even bright red.

2. Perforation: The general ulcer is damaged in the muscular muscular layer of the gastrointestinal tract, when the ulcer continues to progress deep into the serous layer of the gastrointestinal tract, only the outermost layer is left similar to a thin piece of paper, and acute gastrointestinal perforation can occur at any time, and the contents of the gastrointestinal tract flow into the abdominal cavity after perforation, resulting in acute diffuse peritonitis.

3. Pyloric obstruction: The ulcer of the pyloric canal can cause pyloric sphincter spasm, congestion and edema of the mucosal tissue around the ulcer, hinder the push movement of food from the stomach to the duodenum, and cause temporary pyloric obstruction. After the ulcer has healed, the pyloric tract is persistently narrowed due to scarring or adhesion of surrounding tissues.

4. Carcinogenesis: Whether chronic gastric ulcers will become cancerous is still controversial. Most scholars believe that gastric ulcer cancer exists, and its carcinogenesis rate is estimated to be about 1%.

There are several commonly used tests for gastric ulcers:

1.Gastroscopy: Gastroscopy is the main method for diagnosing peptic ulcer, some patients may be intolerant or afraid of the process of gastroscopy, then consider "capsule endoscopy" after anesthesia to reduce the discomfort of gastroscopy.

2.X-ray barium swallow examination: X-ray barium swallow examination is not as accurate as gastroscopy in the diagnosis of ulcers and the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant gastric ulcers, and is often used in patients who are older, have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases or cannot tolerate gastroscopy for other reasons.

3.Tests such as urease test or nuclide-labeled C13 breath: the purpose is to detect the presence of Helicobacter pylori infection, and is mainly used to evaluate the efficacy of Helicobacter pylori****.

1.Changes in the nature and regularity of pain The pain of gastric ulcer is mostly manifested as vague pain in the upper abdomen, which is burning or dull, and the onset of pain is related to eating, which generally appears within 1 or 2 hours after eating, and gradually decreases later. If the pain loses its regularity, becomes sporadic and becomes sporadic or persistent, or if the nature of the pain changes significantly compared to the past, it should be alerted as a precursor to cancer.

2.Although gastric ulcers are easy to reverse, the symptoms can generally be relieved after taking anti-ulcer drugs. If the effect of anti-ulcer drugs** becomes insignificant or even ineffective after taking anti-ulcer drugs** routinely for a period of time, it should be suspected as a precursor to cancer.

3.Patients with progressive wasting who experience loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fever and progressive wasting in a short period of time are more likely to become cancerous.

4.Patients with hematemesis and melena who have frequent recent episodes of hematemesis or tarry stools, persistently positive fecal occult blood test results, and severe anemia suggest that a gastric ulcer may be turning into cancer.

5.Gastric ulcers with a mass in the abdomen usually do not form an abdominal mass, but if they become cancerous, the ulcer becomes larger and harder, and in advanced cases, the mass can be felt in the left upper abdomen. The texture of the lump is hard, nodular, not smooth, and painful to press.

Gastric ulcer is due to the excessive acid that will corrode the gastric mucosa if you don't eat breakfast in the morning, and the ulceration of the gastric mucosa is a gastric ulcer, and it has many complications, such as frequent stomach pain, and stomach discomfort when eating.

Gastric ulcers are caused by Helicobacter pylori infection, poor diet, complications such as gastric bleeding, gastric perforation, and a small number of stomach cancers. Gastric ulcers should be actively ** pay attention to daily diet.

First, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, gastric ulcer erosion of surrounding blood vessels can cause bleeding, upper gastrointestinal bleeding is the most common complication of peptic ulcer, gastric ulcer is the most common upper gastrointestinal bleeding **.

Second, gastric perforation, ulcer lesions develop to the deep part and penetrate the serous layer, then perforation, and the gastric content leaks into the abdominal cavity after perforation, causing acute peritonitis.

Third, pyloric obstruction can be caused by pyloric ulcer, and the acute onset of ulcer can cause temporary obstruction due to inflammation, edema and pyloric spasm.

Fourth, gastric cancer, a small number of gastric ulcers can become cancerous, and cancerous changes occur on the edge of the ulcer.

One of the complications is reflux, another is obstruction, and then there is bleeding. Some patients may have small gastric ulcers that cause this bleeding to be small, then manifest such changes as having a small amount of occult blood in the stool. There are even some patients who vomit blood and vomit blood, so if this kind of patient vomits out, it means that the amount of bleeding is very large.

Then it is also possible that such patients need to be surgically treated, otherwise they will be life-threatening. Then there is obstruction, and there is malignant transformation, so these are the manifestations of some complications caused by gastric ulcers.

Patients with gastric ulcers will have complications if they are not active. The harm to the body is more serious, so patients should actively cooperate with the doctor to minimize the occurrence of complications. The main complications are ulcer bleeding, which is characterized by dizziness, pulse rate, paleness, cold sweats, decreased blood pressure, shock, and life-threatening if there is excessive bleeding.

There is also anemia, gastric ulcer bleeding will be accompanied by two kinds of anemia, one is megaloblastic anemia, which is pernicious anemia, the patient has anemia, dizziness, pan strength, palpitations, paleness, etc. The second is iron deficiency anemia. In addition, gastric ulcers are also prone to cancer.

Therefore, patients with gastric ulcers should be actively followed up and found unwell. Do not be careless to avoid harm to your health.

Early detection and early control, life and diet are the mainstay!
