Monsoon season creates several intestinal difficulties. This season brings bloating, constipation, vomiting, and diarrhoea to babies and the elderly. Common stomach bugs are uncomfortable but seldom fatal.
Bloating
Stomach or intestinal gas causes bloating and pain. Bloating can result from eating too fast, drinking carbonated drinks, eating large meals, or eating gas-producing foods like beans, broccoli, and cauliflower. Stress causes bloating. Bloating can be prevented by recognizing its cause.
Constipation
The feces from constipation are hard to pass. The digestive system moves waste too slowly. Constipation can result from not drinking enough water, eating a low-fiber diet, not exercising, or taking painkillers or antacids. Identifying constipation causes helps treat it.
Vomiting
Disease causes vomiting of food and drink. Food poisoning, viruses, bacteria, allergies, hasty eating, rotting food, and alcoholism cause vomiting. Finding the cause of vomiting helps.
Diarrhoea
Watery or loose stool is diarrhea caused by infection or sickness. Salmonella, E. coli, rotavirus, giardia lamblia, antibiotics, and food sensitivities can induce diarrhoea. Diarrhoea is treated by finding its cause.
Heartburn
When stomach acid refluxes into the oesophagus, chest and throat hurt. Big meals, overeating, spicy foods, acidic liquids like coffee and wine, smoking, and aspirin or ibuprofen induce heartburn. Heartburn can be prevented by locating its cause.
Drinking lots of water, eating a balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables, exercising frequently, avoiding caffeine and alcohol, and quitting smoking helps cure and prevent many common stomach illnesses. If lifestyle modifications don’t help, talk to your doctor about medications.
Whatever stomach bug you have during monsoon season, keep healthy and seek medical advice to be safe and comfortable!
