Hello,
With the question “Anorexia, abdominal pain above the navel is a digestive disorder? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Digestive disorders in adults are caused by many causes. Although it is not a dangerous disease, it causes a lot of discomfort for patients in daily life.
To be able to find an effective treatment, it is necessary to first determine the cause of digestive disorders:
Due to unscientific eating: In particular, eating old food that has been left for too long in the refrigerator; eating unhygienic street food; raw food; processed, greasy foods; excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages, carbonated water, stimulants; eat while working; eat too full, too fast; skipping meals... Due to unhealthy activities: Constant pressure at work, life causes stress, stress; stay up late sleep late; Due to the use of many antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs: Taking antibiotics not only helps to kill harmful bacteria but also accidentally destroys significantly beneficial bacteria in the intestinal tract. If the balance ratio of the intestinal microflora is lost (85% of good bacteria and 15% of bad bacteria), the digestive system will certainly not be able to function smoothly. Due to pathology: Some diseases can cause long-term digestive disorders in adults such as: gastritis, spastic colitis/irritable bowel syndrome, stomach and duodenal ulcers; Allergy or intolerance to lactose gluten... When there are signs of long-term digestive disorders, you should not be subjective, but should visit a doctor immediately for advice on appropriate treatment to avoid affecting the digestive system. .
