What to do if you can't sleep at night due to stomach pain

In modern life, due to the accelerated pace of life and increased work pressure, coupled with unhealthy eating habits, such as frequent overeating and irregular meals, many people will develop stomach diseases. Sometimes I even can’t sleep because of stomach pain. What should I do then?

1: When you have stomachache, it is best to find a place to lie down and gently massage your abdomen. This can ensure smooth flow of stomach gas and make your abdomen feel more comfortable.

(1) Massage the Neiguan point: The Neiguan point is located in the middle of the wrist, about three finger widths (the width of three fingers put together) away from the transverse wrist crease, and is located between the two tendons. Use your thumbs to massage and circle the area 36 times, alternating between your hands. When pain occurs, increase the number to 200 times.

(2) Press Zusanli: The Zusanli point is located three inches below the edge of the knee (equivalent to the width of four fingers put together), between the tibia and fibula. Press the Zusanli point with the tips of your thumbs, 36 times at normal times. When it hurts, you can rub it about 200 times, with a slightly heavier pressure.

(3) Massage the abdomen: Cross your hands, with the right hand on top and the left hand on the bottom for men; and the left hand on top and the right hand on the bottom for women. With the navel as the center, rub the abdomen to draw the Tai Chi diagram, 36 circles clockwise and 36 circles counterclockwise. This method can relieve pain and bloating and increase appetite.

1: People with cold stomachs often suffer from the stimulation of cold food. At this time, drinking some hot water or applying a hot water bag to the stomach for a while will have a more obvious effect.

1: Stomach pain is often caused by hunger. At this time, if there is soft food, eating some, such as bread, biscuits, etc., is very helpful, but don't drink milk or eat hard things. You can buy some soda crackers and keep them at home or on your desk at work for emergencies.

It is best to develop good living habits in daily life and avoid some improper eating habits. In addition to eating a balanced diet on a daily basis, you should also pay attention to using some dietary therapy recipes that can regulate gastrointestinal health to promote gastrointestinal health.
