If they keep depressed and nervous every day, they are easy to suffer from gastric ulcer. If the gastric ulcer is not cured for a long time, it will worsen. Late symptoms of gastric ulcer in the elderly? Let's talk about it.

Late symptoms of gastric ulcer in the elderly?

1. Changes in the nature and regularity of pain: the pain of gastric ulcer is mostly manifested as epigastric dull pain, burning or dull pain, and the onset of pain is related to eating. It usually appears within 1-2 hours after meals, and then gradually alleviates. If the pain loses the above regularity, becomes irregular attack, or becomes persistent dull pain, or the nature of pain has changed significantly compared with the past, it should be alert to be the precursor of cancer.

2. The use of anti ulcer drugs is ineffective. Although gastric ulcer is easy to recur, the symptoms can be relieved after taking anti ulcer drugs. If the effect becomes not obvious or even invalid after taking anti ulcer drugs for a period of time, it should be suspected that it is the precursor of cancer.

3. If patients with progressive emaciation have anorexia, nausea, vomiting, fever and progressive emaciation in a short period of time, the possibility of canceration is great.

matters needing attention

The elderly patients can not go to the hospital in time because of the slow nerve reaction, high pain threshold and atypical symptoms of peritoneal stimulation after perforation. They often go to the hospital when they develop diffuse peritonitis or even septic shock, so the mortality rate is high.
