Dyspepsia Causes - How is it spread?

Ayurvedic Name: Agnimandya

Alternative Name: Indigestion

What are the causes of the dyspepsia?

Dyspepsia may be caused by many conditions such as stomach ulcers. Symptoms similar to dyspepsia can be due to conditions ranging from mild and self-limiting to serious. It is often aggravated by high acidity in the stomach. It may also be caused as a side-effect of some drugs used for treating other illnesses. Sometimes, in some specific cases actual cause cannot be determined.

In dyspepsia, excessive Vata may cause pain in the stomach and excess of Kapha may cause Nausea and Vomiting. There is also loss of appetite in some cases of dyspepsia. Helicobacter pylori is a bacteria, which lives in the mucus layer of the stomach and may cause irritation.

Other main causes of dyspepsia are overeating, bad food habits, eating too rapidly and neglecting proper mastication and salivation of food. Overeating, makes the work of the stomach, lever, kidneys and bowels harder and ultimately leads to dyspepsia.

Patients with dyspepsia can be divided into two major groups. There are some people who show many identifiable causes for their symptoms and and there are people who upon testing, show no abnormalities that can be detected.

Dyspepsia can occur with following:

  • Peptic Ulcer Disease.
  • Gastroesophageal Reflux.
  • Biliary tract disease.
  • Gallbladder disease.
  • Pregnancy.
  • Pancreatitis.
  • Inflammatory bowel disease.
  • Diabetes mellitus.
  • Stomach infiltrative disease.

Some of the things that can make dyspepsia even more worse:

  • Some foods if not cooked properly can lead to dyspepsia.
  • Intake of fri ed food or heavy meals.
  • Rich and spicy food.
  • Excessive smoking.
  • Drinking excess of alcohol.
  • Constipation also can cause dyspepsia.
  • Habit of eating and drinking together.
  • Pregnancy, which commonly causes heartburn, indigestion or vomiting.
  • Insomnia.
  • Stress and anxiety.
  • Some anti-inflammatory medication used for the treatment of arthritis can cause dyspepsia.
  • Lack of exercise.
  • Long gaps between meals also leads to dyspepsia as it allows the acid more time to act. Each meal neutralises the acid for a while.
