Is it stomach cancer if I have stomach pain when I lie down and then sit up to relieve it?

Generally speaking, if you experience stomach pain when lying down and the pain is relieved or disappears after you get up and move around, it does not necessarily mean you have stomach cancer. There are many clinical reasons for this, including improper diet, peptic ulcer, etc.

If the patient has chronic superficial gastritis, inflammation of the duodenal bulb, etc., the gastrointestinal motility will be weakened, and food will accumulate in the intestine for too long and ferment to produce gas, which will stimulate the abdominal nerve endings and cause symptoms such as abdominal distension and belching. At this time, you can take drugs such as domperidone tablets and mosapride citrate capsules for treatment as prescribed by the doctor;

Long-term heavy smoking and drinking, eating spicy and greasy foods, and Helicobacter pylori infection will increase the risk of gastric cancer. When tumor cells invade surrounding tissues and organs, they will cause upper abdominal discomfort or dull pain. It will also be accompanied by loss of appetite, weight loss and fatigue. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a complete examination in time, such as CT scan, pathological test, etc. to make a clear diagnosis. If it is confirmed to be gastric cancer, it needs to be treated by surgical removal of the lesion.

In daily life, we should develop good living habits, avoid overeating and eating raw, cold and cool food, so as not to aggravate the condition. In addition, we should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and ensure adequate sleep, which is conducive to physical recovery.
