How to do gastroscope and what to eat to protect gastric mucosa

Endoscopy is an endoscopic examination that passes through the mouth or nose, reaches the esophagus, and then passes through the duodenal bulb. When doing gastroscopy, the patient should take the left lateral position, open his mouth, wear an oral pad and a saliva bag. When walking under the gastroscope, the patient should cooperate with the doctor to swallow and let the saliva flow naturally. For patients, there may be some more uncomfortable feelings. Therefore, gastroscopy can be performed under general anesthesia, with less pain and easier acceptance.

There are many foods to protect gastric mucosa, mainly millet, spinach, carrots, pumpkins, and yogurt that people drink every day. Yogurt contains a lot of probiotics, which can regulate the flora of the stomach and help digestion. If you have stomach trouble, you shouldn't eat too much of these foods. Eating too much can easily increase the burden on the stomach and cause nausea, vomiting and bloating. Try to keep warm, eat lightly and don't overeat. Pay attention to keep a good mood and don't have too much pressure.
