"dyspepsia"의 정의 및 의미

What is "dyspepsia"?

Dyspepsia, also known as indigestion, is a term that describes discomfort or pain in the upper abdomen. Common symptoms include bloating, burping, nausea, and a feeling of fullness or burning in the stomach. Dyspepsia can be caused by overeating, eating too quickly, consuming fatty or spicy foods, stress, or certain medications. It can also be a sign of an underlying medical condition like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Treatment often involves dietary changes, such as avoiding trigger foods, eating smaller meals, and reducing stress. Over-the-counter heartburn medicines or other medications may also help relieve symptoms.
