Then the common causes are this, such as peptic ulcer, but it may also be other, such as intestinal obstruction or other tumors of the digestive system, which may also cause abdominal distension, the main manifestation is that the patient feels that the abdomen is full and uncomfortable, and there may be a bulge in the abdomen.

Western**.

Abdominal distension is due to the excess gas in the gastrointestinal tract, which is characterized by abdominal distention, pale skin, and even exposed veins, and abdominal skin tightness like a drum, which is a symptom of gastrointestinal disorders, and its main ** and pathogenesis are as follows:

1) Food fermentation.

Normally, there are a lot of bacteria present in the lower ileum and ascending colon. If chyme stays in this intestine for a long time for some reason, under the action of bacteria, it can cause chyme to ferment, produce a large amount of gas, and cause bloating.

2) Inhale air.

Intestinal flatulence can be caused by inhaling large amounts of air due to poor speech or eating habits when eating.

3) Impaired gas absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.

Normally, most of the gas in the abdominal cavity is absorbed by the blood vessels in the intestinal wall and expelled from the body by breathing in the lungs. In some diseases, blood circulation in the intestinal wall is impaired, which affects the absorption of gas in the intestinal lumen, thus causing abdominal distention.

4) Disorders of gas excretion in the gastrointestinal tract.

For some reason, bowel motility is weakened or absent, so the gas in the intestinal lumen cannot be expelled from the body, causing abdominal distention.

If the accumulated gases in the body cannot be expelled from the body, it can put pressure on the digestive system, causing the person to feel bloated or even painful. Frequent gas (commonly known as farting), hiccups, bloating or pain, is a problem that occurs almost every day for many people with a fast pace of life and high pressure, and the gas scattered in the human digestive tract is mainly two, one is that the external air enters the body, when you talk endlessly, chew gum, drink drinks with a straw, or swallow food, a lot of air also goes down with the stomach. The other** is produced by bacteria in the large intestine during the breakdown of food.

After the food we eat enters the digestive system, it is broken down by various digestive enzymes, and finally about 90% of it is digested and absorbed in the small intestine. Other foods that are not absorbed by the small intestine enter the large intestine and are broken down and used by bacteria in the large intestine. When bacteria break down food, they produce various gases.

Because the human body lacks enzymes to digest certain carbohydrates (such as oligosaccharides and polysaccharides), after ingesting these foods, they are not digested in the small intestine, and are decomposed and utilized by intestinal bacteria in the large intestine, and then produce a large amount of gas.

It may be cold, first use hot water to replace it, and after relieving it, drink brown sugar ginger jujube water. Push the abdomen again. If necessary, you can take stomach pain powder. Note: The difference between deficiency chill and qi stagnation.

It could be indigestion. Usually pay attention to nourishing the stomach. In the morning and evening, a cup of yam and purple potato powder can be used to nourish the spleen and stomach, strengthen the spleen and stop diarrhea, and protect the stomach and intestines by eating it for a long time.
