Gastritis is the inflammation of the mucous layer in the stomach. In this case, pathogenic bacteria replace the microflora with a pathogenic medium. The development of the disease contributes to malnutrition, a strong overstrain in school or work and the presence of bad habits. Especially harmful is smoking. Even the habit of drinking, in comparison with it, is not so harmful. Obvious symptoms of gastritis are pain in the sternum, nausea, vomiting and flatulence. Sometimes the tongue feels unpleasant taste, and the mouth is dry. In acute form of the disease there are constant fatigue and headache. The disease is treated both with the help of a medical diet, and through a drug course.
Under meteorism is understood the accumulation of gases in the area of the digestive tract. It can also appear in healthy enough people due to overeating or eating a number of foods that make digestion difficult. With gastritis, flatulence is often a phenomenon. Owners of this symptom often feel uncomfortable with other people, because it can manifest at any time.
The unpleasant odor of gases released from the intestine is related to the content of hydrogen sulfide, scatol and indole in them. With gastritis, the processes of food rotting are greatly activated. Due to harmful microflora as a result of fermentation, an excessive amount of gases is released, the accumulation of which leads to the appearance of flatulence.
How to treat flatulence?
Treatment of gastritis also relieves all symptoms. Increased gas production is well cleaned by changes in nutrition. The symptom does not disappear until there are problems with the microflora of the stomach. A complete disposal of the pathogenic environment is possible only when the problems of the gastric mucosa are cured. Allocate time to visit a doctor, let him prescribe the appropriate course of drugs. Self-treatment is not so much dangerous as it is useless. There are quite a few varieties of gastritis. Almost all of them are accompanied by flatulence. For effective treatment, you need to know the exact type of the disease.
To alleviate symptoms at home, take a large dose of activated charcoal. Manifestations of gastritis are well removed with the help of white clay, dimethicone and polysorb. These substances improve the processes of absorption and removal of gases from the body. Their reception temporarily solves the problem of flatulence.
But it will not work all your life on drugs, especially since they lose their effectiveness in case of long-term use. Start moving towards a healthy lifestyle if you are afraid of doctors.
Think about a diet. With gastritis, drink tea from mint and chamomile. Eat more dill, fennel and coriander. With meteorism, products with a high content of coarse fiber: gooseberries, grapes, sorrel and cabbage are good.
During a bout of flatulence, drink a glass of warmed mineral water. It will also help infusion of mint, valerian and fennel, filled with boiling water. With a strong swelling of the stomach, eat a teaspoon of powder from carrot seeds.
