What Are the Symptoms of Gastric Bleeding?
Disease description:
I’ve been vomiting blood over the past two days—this may indicate gastrointestinal bleeding. What are the symptoms of gastric bleeding?
Symptoms of gastric bleeding include stomach pain, hematemesis (vomiting blood), cold sweats, fatigue in the limbs, indigestion, and loss of appetite. Gastric bleeding is most commonly caused by gastric disorders such as chronic gastritis or gastric ulcers; it may also result from long-term alcohol consumption or habitual intake of spicy, irritating foods. Consult a physician for appropriate treatment, which may include medications to protect the gastric mucosa and control bleeding.
