What are the symptoms of a person with a perforated stomach?

Gastric perforation is one of the common acute abdomen conditions in gastrointestinal surgery. It is one of the most serious complications in patients with stomach ulcers. The onset of gastric perforation is relatively acute and rapidly changing.

Sometimes the situation deteriorates significantly in a short period of time, which can have some serious consequences. Therefore, once acute gastric perforation occurs, it needs to be urgent**.

Abdominal pain, which manifests as sudden pain between the upper abdomen in the form of a knife wound or burn, usually lasts but may also be paroxysmal and can spread rapidly throughout the abdomen. If symptoms of shock progress to bacterial peritonitis and intestinal paralysis, patients may develop septic shock. Nausea and vomiting, which may occur in some patients, but are not severe.

Intestinal paralysis can worsen vomiting, along with symptoms such as bloating. Other symptoms, such as fever and rapid pulse, usually appear a few hours after the perforation. Some physical examinations, such as abdominal tenderness, rebound tenderness, peritonitis such as abdominal muscle tone, diffuse peritonitis, and diffuse peritonitis may also present with a plate-like abdomen, and dull hepatic percussion borders may be reduced or absent.

A common cause of gastric perforation is peptic ulcer, which is more common in patients with peptic ulcers. Severe abdominal pain can occur after overeating. The pain initially begins in the upper abdomen or at the site of the piercing and usually manifests as a knife wound or burning pain.

It is usually persistent but can also present as paroxysmal exacerbations. The pain quickly spread throughout the abdomen, accompanied by tingling and shoulder pain. Some patients may have symptoms of nausea and vomiting.

Intestinal paralysis can worsen nausea and vomiting. At the same time, they have symptoms such as bloating and constipation.

If the perforation is accompanied by shock, the patient will also have symptoms such as irritability, shallow and rough breathing, and unstable blood pressure. Acute peritonitis may also be characterized by significant abdominal tenderness, rejection, and rebound tenderness. Once the diagnosis of gastric perforation is confirmed, prompt surgery is required**.

Surgery is an option of open gastric perforation repair or laparoscopic gastric perforation repair. After repairing the perforation, the peritoneal cavity is repeatedly flushed with normal saline and metronidazole until cleared, and then symptomatic with intravenous antibiotics**.

The most common cause of gastric perforation is peptic ulcer, which occurs due to the deepening of the ulcer, penetrating the muscular, and finally the serous layer through the wall of the stomach or duodenum.

Common conditions are:

1. Abdominal pain, sudden and severe, abdominal pain is the most frequent and important symptom of gastric perforation, the pain initially begins in the upper abdomen or the perforation site, often knife-cut and burning-like pain, generally persistent, but there are paroxysmal aggravations, the pain quickly spreads to the whole abdomen, can spread to the shoulder as a tingling and sore feeling.

2. Shock symptoms, patients often have a certain degree of shock symptoms in the early stage of perforation, and the disease progresses to bacterial peritonitis and intestinal paralysis, and patients can have toxic shock again.

3. Nausea and vomiting, about half of the patients have nausea and vomiting, which is not violent, and the vomiting is aggravated when the intestine is paralyzed, and there are symptoms such as abdominal distension and constipation.

4. In other cases, fever and increased white blood cells generally appear a few hours after perforation.

Patients with gastrointestinal ulcers are prone to gastric perforation due to mood swings or overeating, and the possibility of gastric perforation should be considered immediately after the occurrence of related symptoms.

Severe abdominal pain occurs suddenly, the condition progresses to bacterial peritonitis and intestinal paralysis, patients may have toxic shock, some patients may have nausea, vomiting, fever, rapid pulse and other symptoms.

There will be pain in the abdomen, there will be symptoms of shock, there will be nausea and vomiting, there will be pain in the heart sockets, there will be muscle tension and rebound pain.

If you know more, it is very likely that bacterial peritonitis will occur, and there may be toxic gastroenteritis, which may cause shortness of breath, unstable blood pressure, abdominal pain, and bloating.

Gastric perforation is one of the most serious diseases of ulcer patients, if not timed**, it will be life-threatening, what are the symptoms of gastric perforation?
