Why do I still feel full after inducing vomiting?
Feeling full after vomiting may be due to stimulation or factors such as gastrointestinal dysfunction or gastritis.
1. Stimulation
Feeling full after vomiting might result from irritation caused during the act of induced vomiting, triggering the nervous system to activate protective mechanisms that prevent eating for a period of time.
2. Gastrointestinal Dysfunction
Feeling full after vomiting could be caused by disruption of gastrointestinal function during forced vomiting. This may also be accompanied by abnormal symptoms such as acid reflux, belching, vomiting, and abdominal pain.
3. Gastritis
If acute or chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa develops due to various factors, bloating and a sensation of fullness may occur after vomiting. This may also be associated with upper abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite.
After experiencing persistent fullness following induced vomiting, it is recommended to promptly visit a hospital for appropriate examinations to establish an accurate diagnosis. Treatment should be carried out according to the underlying cause under medical supervision to prevent serious complications.
