10. Pain pathogenesis

•Irritation of pain receptors of the
parietal peritoneum (inflammation,
damage)
•Irritation of mechano- and
volumoreceptors of the wall of a hollow
organ (stretching)
•Irritation of the chemoreceptors of the
organ wall (ischemia)

11. 2 main types of the pain

•Parietal -is a well-localized, acute,
intense, positive rebound
symptom. Requires surgical
treatment
•Visceral pain -broad, dull, negative
rebound tenderness symptom.
Does not require urgent surgical
treatment

12. Gastric dyspepsia

(nausea, vomiting, feeling of overflow,
belching sour)
- by the type of acidism
- by the type of delayed evacuation
Regurgitation symptoms:
- gastric contents - heartburn,
- bile contents -bitterness in the mouth,
belching bitter

13. Diarrhea

Causes:
• stomach damage
• damage to the pancreas
• bile deficiency
• bowel disease
Types:
small bowel diarrhea:
• no fecal color (yellow, green)
• unformed
• undigested food particles
• Daily volume more than 1 liter (up to 8)
colonic diarrhea:
• retains fecal color
• partially completed
• in small portions(daily volume less than 1 liter)
• contains mucus, sometimes blood and pus

14. Malabsorption syndrome

• Syndrome of Metabolic Disorder - diarrhea +
loss of weight due to impaired absorption of
proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins,
microelements
•Where are they absorbed?
•Only digested foods are absorbed !!!

15. Dysphagia- difficulty in swallowing

Violation of the passage of food, it should be
distinguished from both globus sensation (in
which anxious people feel a lump in the throat
without organic cause) and odynophagia (pain
during swallowing, usually from gastrooesophageal reflux or candidiasis).
2 types:
- Pharyngeal (oropharyngeal)
- Esophageal dysphagia

16.

17. Other symptoms

• Bloating (flatulence) - excess gassing
• Excessive salivation - hypersalivation
• Odinophagy
• Sitophobia
• Hypo- and anorexia
• Rumination with chewing
• Borborism
• Signs of bleeding: vomiting blood ("coffee
grounds"), tarry stools (melena), weakness,
dizziness
