Nausea and stomach ache from eggs

Why does my stomach hurt after eating eggs?

It has been recorded that many people experience stomach pain after eating eggs. Reasoning among leading nutritionists regarding the number of eggs a person needs per week to eat often varies greatly.

Eating raw eggs, excluding heat treatment, and undercooked eggs can cause salmonellosis, a fairly common disease. Salmonellosis is caused by the bacterium Salmonella, which, once in the stomach, is extremely tenacious.

Symptoms of infection are pain and discomfort in the abdominal cavity. In severe forms of the disease, the temperature rises, the head hurts, chills begin, and severe nausea and vomiting are added. Diarrhea appears. With this course of the disease, the main treatment is to call a doctor and take antibiotics.

The most severe form resembles typhoid fever in nature. Symptoms: fever, rash, severe intoxication of the body. In this case, seeking help from a medical institution is the only way out.

Salmonellosis is contagious. You can become infected if there is a sick person nearby and you use shared hygiene items and cutlery. Untreated patients can pose a threat to others.

Eggs cause an allergic reaction in the body and are among the generally recognized allergens. Those with egg food intolerance have a hard time in life; they must constantly refuse to eat certain dishes and carefully study the composition of food for the presence of egg components.

Both the yolk and the white can provoke difficulties, and the reaction occurs abruptly after exposure to the allergen. It can cause: hives, nausea, diarrhea, runny nose, allergic asthma.

The main treatment is dietary nutrition, excluding any type of egg product from the diet. It is permissible to try to switch to other eggs if the allergy is provoked by substances contained in chicken proteins.

How to aggravate, increase pain in the abdomen

It is undesirable to aggravate this negative situation. Sometimes doctors themselves require aggravation in order to consider the problem in different phases from its inception to a more developed form.

If such measures are nevertheless required, then here is what will worsen your condition:

• eat poorly;
• eat products and dishes containing allergens;
• overeat;
• eat in the absence of appetite;
• uncontrolled use of medications;
• eat solid food when painful;
• continue to eat foods containing eggs;
• give heavy physical activity to the abdominal muscles.

What does dull, pulling, point or cutting pain in the abdomen indicate?

The presence of pain in any part of the body indicates the progression of the disease. The nature of the pain syndrome is classified into pathological and physiological (the case of pregnancy).

Nagging painful sensations can be a temporary ailment or appear suddenly with such intensity that the patient cannot cope with them (there may be a serious threat to health).

Painful sensations indicate:

• gastrointestinal disorders;
• kidney problems (pain radiates to the lumbar region);
• inflammation of the urinary and reproductive systems.

Any disorder of the gastrointestinal tract is a consequence of ongoing diseases; their carrier often has no idea about the presence of problems in the body.

Reasons why the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract is disrupted:

1. Peptic ulcer: the intensity of pain varies - from moderately weak to unbearably strong. In case of acute cutting pain, urgent medical intervention is carried out, because probably the release of acidic stomach contents into the abdominal cavity.
2. Inflammation of the mucous membrane (gastritis): manifests itself in dull, aching pain, heartburn (often after a person has eaten).
3. Pancreatitis: pain begins in the upper abdomen, tormenting for several days, while eating, the discomfort intensifies (bloating is felt, the temperature may rise).
4. Inflammation of the gallbladder: pain in the right hypochondrium, often radiating to the arm, chest and neck on the right side.

Diseases reveal themselves by tingling, nausea, vomiting, and fever.

Rare sources:

1. Stomach polyps: diagnosis is difficult; the medical history consists of a dull aching pain on palpation, bleeding, nausea, and vomiting.
2. Cancer: characterized by a constant, mild aching feeling in the stomach.
3. Stress: great physical and emotional stress can cause disturbances in the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, causing a feeling of pain in it (stool upset and vomiting may occur).
4. Allergy: when an allergen enters the body, an aching feeling appears that does not have a clear localization.

If the pain is physiological in nature, i.e. a woman is carrying a child, this is a natural phenomenon: the growing uterus puts pressure on nearby organs, resulting in a feeling of discomfort.

Nature of pain

Acute stabbing, cutting, spasmodic, aching pain in the stomach often appears with exacerbation of chronic duodenitis or with duodenal ulcer. “Dagger” pain accompanies ulcer perforation.

A feeling of fullness in the epigastrium (in the upper middle region of the abdomen) and heaviness occurs when suffering from chronic gastritis with reduced secretory function. The same feeling of fullness in the epigastrium accompanies pyloric stenosis, and an increase in the intensity of such pain often indicates the appearance of colitis, pancreatitis or cholecystitis.

Burning, annoying pain that occurs when you have a peptic ulcer or gastritis indicates the appearance of solaritis. Aching, dull pain accompanies chronic gastritis with preserved secretion or gastric ulcer. Less commonly, peptic ulcer disease is accompanied by sharp, spasmodic pain.

When do you need to see a doctor urgently, and which doctor will help?

Of course, going to the clinic at the first sensation of pain is not necessary. Perhaps a hearty breakfast is poorly absorbed by the body, or the yogurt has expired.

But there are a number of cases when seeing the doctor on time means avoiding negative consequences:

1. A strong, piercing pain that appeared for the first time.
2. For a long time (up to a week) the feeling of discomfort and heaviness does not go away; if the feeling intensifies, then it is better not to wait a week, but to consult in time.
3. Flatulence lasting a couple of days.
4. Associated symptoms include frequent urination or a burning sensation that appears during the process.
5. Stool disorder is observed for four or more days.
6. An elevated temperature is added, which indicates an inflammatory process in the body.
7. Pain radiating to the chest, neck, lower back.

If a woman is in an “interesting” position, then any deviation from the norm is a reason for urgent consultation with a specialist.

There are a number of accompanying symptoms that indicate that you cannot do without medical help:

• changes in the patient’s behavior: previously cheerful and full of energy, with the onset of the disease he becomes apathetic and lethargic;
• vomit;
• problems with stool;
• the abdominal wall is in a tense state;
• the pulse is quickened, the person feels hot and cold, and perspiration appears;
• pronounced pallor of the skin.

Doctors of different specializations help with existing problems. A gastroenterologist will help if we are talking about gastrointestinal disorders (usually related to food). If you suspect genitourinary problems, you should seek help from a urologist; women should visit a gynecologist. If discomfort is caused by the groin area, a proctologist will help.

If it is difficult for the patient to self-diagnose the condition (“It just hurts here, but I don’t know what”), it is best to start visiting the clinic with a therapist, who will prescribe the appropriate tests and tell you which specialist to contact. If a child needs help, a pediatrician will consult. ↑

Is it possible to drink raw eggs if you have gastritis?

Chicken and quail eggs are considered a dietary product and are widely used for various types of diseases; they are a valuable therapeutic and prophylactic agent used from early childhood to old age. The children's diet uses only the freshest products from chickens and quails, which have high nutritional value and a number of advantages.

A raw egg is very appropriate for inflammatory processes in the digestive organs. The structure of the egg liquid seems to envelop sore, irritated areas on the mucous membrane of the walls, reducing and soothing inflammation and erosion.

Therapeutic effects of eggs for gastritis:

• protection of the gastric mucosa from the aggression of gastric juice;

Top medications to reduce abdominal pain, painkillers

The course of treatment is selected by the doctor. But if it is not possible to visit a doctor, and it becomes unbearable to endure, the use of painkillers is allowed.

Feeling of a lump in the stomach

Gastritis

33346 August 21

IMPORTANT!

The information in this section cannot be used for self-diagnosis and self-treatment.
In case of pain or other exacerbation of the disease, diagnostic tests should be prescribed only by the attending physician. To make a diagnosis and properly prescribe treatment, you should contact your doctor. Feeling of a lump in the stomach: causes of occurrence, what diseases it occurs with, diagnosis and treatment methods.

The feeling of a coma in the stomach is described when one experiences a feeling of heaviness, discomfort and fullness in the stomach, even when it is only slightly filled. Sometimes patients find it difficult to determine the exact location of the coma and point to the lower third of the sternum or solar plexus. In some cases, a feeling of a lump and cramps in the stomach may occur on an empty stomach.

Types of feeling of a coma in the stomach

A feeling of heaviness or coma in the stomach can be an independent symptom, but may be accompanied by other unpleasant sensations. Sometimes it is heartburn, sour belching, bloating, constipation.

In some cases, a feeling of a lump appears when swallowing

, making it difficult for chewed food to pass through.
In addition, patients may complain that food did not enter the stomach, but stopped in the esophagus.
In such patients, vomiting of unchanged food is possible. When describing symptoms, you should pay attention to the time of onset of discomfort - before

or
after eating
.

The patient may feel heaviness in the stomach with pain or heartburn, on an empty stomach or after eating, and night pain also occurs.

Sometimes the sensation of a lump in the stomach occurs
regardless of food intake
.
In such cases, they complain of stomach spasms
, sometimes accompanied by a feeling of a lump in the throat.

What diseases cause a sensation of a lump in the stomach?

Eating more than your usual amount of food

, accompanied by a feeling of fullness and heaviness in the stomach. This condition is not a manifestation of the disease and goes away on its own after some time.

It should be noted that stomach capacity varies depending on eating habits.

People who are small or
have undergone gastric resection
can eat a small portion, otherwise they will not only experience a feeling of heaviness or fullness in the stomach, but also vomiting.

A sensation of coma may occur when consuming foods that cause excess gas.

, as well as
food that is difficult to digest
(salads with mayonnaise, fatty, fried and smoked dishes) and
highly carbonated drinks
.
When eating dry and hastily,
an unpleasant sensation in the epigastric region is caused by poor processing of the food bolus with saliva and insufficient secretion of gastric juice.

However, a feeling of coma or discomfort in the stomach, or more precisely, in the epigastric region, may appear after eating even a small amount of food

.
This condition can be caused by diseases of the gastrointestinal tract or other reasons.
First of all, they assume indigestion, or functional dyspepsia. Its symptoms most often include pain and discomfort immediately after eating, a feeling of heaviness and fullness in the stomach, heartburn, belching, nausea, sometimes vomiting, reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus, bloating and bowel dysfunction.

Dyspepsia can be a symptom of both functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract and organic diseases.

Functional causes of dyspepsia are often caused by errors in diet and medications.

Iron ions have an irritating effect on the gastric mucosa, which is most pronounced when taking medications based on ferrous iron. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which are systematically taken for rheumatic and non-rheumatic diseases of the musculoskeletal system, also cause undesirable effects: heaviness and discomfort in the stomach, nausea, vomiting, and dyspeptic disorders.

Neurological disorders

(neuroses, depression), psychological trauma almost always affects the state of the gastrointestinal tract, leading to impaired motility.

Functional dyspepsia is not accompanied by erosive or ulcerative lesions of the stomach; its symptoms disappear when the general state of health is normalized.

One of the common causes of discomfort in the stomach immediately after eating is
gastritis
. It is accompanied by functional and inflammatory processes that have a negative effect on the gastric mucosa. Symptoms of gastritis include heaviness and pain in the stomach, indigestion, nausea, heartburn, sour belching and bloating when eating any food. The inflammatory process leads to atrophy of the mucous membrane and disruption of the glands that secrete gastric juice.

Insufficient gastric juice and weak peristalsis of the stomach and intestines make it difficult to digest food.

Gastritis is often accompanied by dyspepsia. In addition to a feeling of heaviness and aching pain in the epigastric region after eating, poor appetite, weakness, fatigue, and irritability are noted. When pressing on the abdomen, a dull pain appears in the projection of the stomach.

Impaired motor-evacuation functions

upper digestive tract is always accompanied by a feeling of coma or a feeling of heaviness in the stomach. Disorders of esophageal motility are usually caused by incoordination of the esophageal sphincters. Uncoordinated work of the esophageal muscles can lead to a delay in the bolus of food on the way to the stomach, the reflux of food particles into the respiratory tract, and reflux (return of stomach contents into the esophagus). Impaired gastric motility leads to slow emptying, which is accompanied by a feeling of heaviness and fullness even with a small amount of food consumed, pain in the epigastric region, heartburn, nausea and vomiting.

Motility disorders of the esophagus and stomach may be associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease, gastritis, tumors and stenoses (narrowings), metabolic disorders (hyperkalemia, hypercalcemia), postoperative complications of gastrectomy, taking certain medications (opiates, antidepressants, hormones), alcohol and nicotine .

Peristalsis worsens with a sedentary lifestyle and with age.

Stomach cancer can also cause symptoms such as a feeling of heaviness or a lump in the stomach. Moreover, depending on the location of the tumor, its manifestations vary. If the tumor is located closer to the esophagus, problems with swallowing food occur. This is accompanied by increased salivation, nausea, vomiting, and pain in the epigastric region. When the tumor is localized in the lower parts of the stomach, closer to the duodenum, a prolonged feeling of heaviness after eating and bloating is characteristic. When burping, a putrid odor may be felt.

Which doctors should you contact if you feel a lump in your stomach?

If there is a constant feeling of a lump in the stomach or a feeling of heaviness, it is necessary to contact or to make a preliminary diagnosis. The gastroenterologist may also refer the patient to an oncologist. A consultation may also be required.

Diagnosis and examination if you feel a lump in the stomach

First of all, clinical blood and stool tests are necessary for differential diagnosis.

Preventive measures to avoid abdominal pain

There are a number of measures aimed at preventing gastrointestinal diseases:

• avoid evening snacks and overeating before bed;
• Strictly limit or eliminate the consumption of foods high in fat, flour, and sweets;
• coffee is an enemy to health, try to give it up completely;
• food products made with the help of deep processing of meat (sausages, sausages) are one of the possible causes of the development of colon cancer: by refusing to eat them, you will not lose anything; eating natural meat is more beneficial;
• after eating, avoid any stress on the abdominal area for two hours;
• The most banal, but most useful advice of all - do not forget to wash your hands after visiting the toilet and before eating.

Although these recommendations seem primitive, their effectiveness has long been proven. It is not difficult to follow them, and the effect will be obvious.

What causes sudden abdominal pain?

Pain is explained by the body's response to irritants. By its nature one can determine the original source.

↑

cutting

If the abdominal cavity seems to be cut into pieces, most likely the problem lies in the upper parts of the gastrointestinal tract: the stomach, duodenum, pancreas.

The appearance of pain: hydrochloric acid, which is part of the gastric juice, has an aggressive effect on the mucous membrane, which is already damaged.

This is where pain of a burning nature arises. If a person is sick with pancreatitis, then damage to the solar plexus becomes quite possible.

Intestinal colic also reveals itself as a cutting pain. They appear against the background of stress, overwork and other reasons. If a person has acute gastritis, to which food poisoning is added, then such symptoms cannot be avoided.

↑

Stabbing

For various intestinal problems, the most common complaint among patients is stabbing pain in the navel area. Various damaging factors affect the smooth muscles of the intestinal wall, thereby causing its sharp contraction.

Intestinal spasms can simultaneously manifest as stabbing and cutting pain, especially when it comes to food poisoning. ↑

Shingles in the abdominal area

Dull pain surrounding the abdominal cavity has not many causes. It all depends on its location. If it appears on both sides and extends to the top of the navel, then it may be inflammation of the pancreas, or acute pancreatitis. One of the factors in the manifestation and progression of diseases is considered to be excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages.

If the symptom appears on one side along the lower rib, then we can talk about damage to the spinal nerve. The lesion may be a consequence of a previous injury or intervertebral hernia.

↑

Paroxysmal

If a painful feeling manifests itself in attacks according to the “let go-grabbed” principle, then most likely the problem is an intestinal disorder. The process is explained by intestinal peristalsis (complex movements that move a bolus of food).

↑

Pulsating

Perhaps the most dangerous species. It may indicate a purulent process in the abdominal cavity. For example, it could be an abscess that appears as a result of acute appendicitis.

An inflamed pancreas manifests itself with the same symptoms.

Why do you feel a feeling of heaviness in your stomach?

Cause of abdominal pain and diarrhea

is the entry into the gastrointestinal tract of poor-quality dishes containing large amounts of microorganism toxins.

Protein-rich foods (meat and fish products, creams and biscuits containing egg whites, whipped cream, homemade ice cream) provide an excellent environment for bacteria to grow.

– diseases caused by direct exposure to pathogenic microbes (bacteria,

, protozoa) on the human body.

With most acute intestinal infections, symptoms such as abdominal pain and diarrhea are usually difficult to associate with food intake. Firstly, microorganisms can enter the body not only with food, but also with contaminated water (for example, with cholera) or even by airborne droplets through the air (with some viral infections).

Secondly, most diseases in this group are characterized by an incubation period, that is, there is a fairly long clear gap between the infection entering the body and the appearance of the first symptoms of the disease.

The presence of an incubation period is due to the fact that it takes some time for the total mass of pathogenic microbes to increase due to their reproduction in the human body.

The exception is salmonellosis. In this case, the pathogens enter the food in a concentrated form, so to speak. Infection occurs through consumption of eggs or carcasses of sick birds, milk of infected cows or goats, meat of sick animals (cows, goats, horses, pigs).

Waterfowl eggs pose the greatest epidemiological danger, so doctors do not recommend eating them.

In typical cases of salmonellosis, the first symptoms appear within two hours after consuming a suspicious product. Abdominal pain is localized in the upper regions and near the navel. The disease develops rapidly, with an increase in body temperature and the appearance of symptoms of intoxication (aching joints, headache, general weakness).

A completely different mechanism for the appearance of abdominal pain after eating and diarrhea in chronic

For reasons similar to chronic pancreatitis, pain and diarrhea appear after eating in diseases

and bile ducts.

Bile is necessary for the normal breakdown of fats, therefore, with its deficiency, as in the case of chronic pancreatitis, “fatty” loose stools are observed. It is bile that gives color to feces, so a characteristic feature of acholia (lack of bile) is light, almost white, feces with a greasy sheen.

The appearance of abdominal pain and diarrhea after eating is very typical for

Probably not from eggs. Unless, of course, you stuffed sausage and pepper in there. Now there is an infection that causes severe stomach pain, and the pain cannot be relieved by conventional means.

What do various abdominal pains indicate when eating various foods?

According to medical statistics, a third of the world's population experiences discomfort in the abdominal area due to poor nutrition. Therefore, for those who have digestive problems, it is better to avoid some names.

↑

Legumes

Belonging to the legume family, vegetables are rich in minerals and vitamins. But at the same time, the oligosaccharides they contain increase gas formation produced by the digestive system. This is where pain occurs, irritable bowel syndrome.

Soaking legumes overnight will improve their properties. But if this procedure is futile, it is better to switch to whole grains.

↑

Carbonated drinks

If in the case of legume products, complete rejection of them is recommended only under extreme circumstances, then rejection of carbonated drinks is one of the prerequisites for a healthy stomach and intestines.

Any “soda” is characterized by a high level of carbon dioxide, which contributes to bloating and the appearance of pain. That is, with every sip of a carbonated drink a person consciously adds gases to the body, which is where the spasms begin.

Since “soda” does not have the slightest nutritional value, you can safely replace it with freshly squeezed juices and fresh juices.

↑

Wheat

According to studies, gluten contained in wheat can contribute to digestive system disorders. But the usual diet of many people largely consists of this cereal.

If you are hypersensitive to gluten, it is recommended to completely avoid this crop, as well as similar ones that also contain gluten: rye, barley, oats, etc.

Eating products containing wheat grains can lead to pain, diarrhea, flatulence, and bloating.

↑

Onion

Most people, even with their mother’s milk, learn the rule that onions are healthy, the more you eat, the better, you will get sick less.

But, if a person has problems with the gastrointestinal tract, then the sulfur compounds and fructans that make up raw onions will cause flatulence, bloating and pain. To avoid this, it is recommended to replace onions with other spicy herbs that do not have a similar effect.

↑

Is it possible to have raw eggs for gastritis?

Drinking eggs on an empty stomach for gastritis is allowed, but hard-boiled eggs can lead to an exacerbation. Chicken and quail eggs are considered the most valuable source of protein. On the one hand, they are very nutritious, but on the other hand, they have low calorie content.

Quail eggs are recommended not only for patients with gastrointestinal pathologies, but also for healthy people from early childhood. Without exception, all the substances that make up raw eggs are incredibly useful for acute and chronic inflammation of gastritis.

The ideal option is to drink raw chicken eggs. That is, they should be as fresh as possible. The concentration of nutrients in such a product will be maximum. Drink a raw egg on an empty stomach for gastritis 1 hour before breakfast.
