Reporter: Doctor, if stomach pain is not well controlled, what serious consequences can occur for a patient's overall health?
Dr. Litonjua stated: "The Philippines has one of the highest rates of stomach diseases in the world. Worryingly, most patients only discover the disease when the stomach lining is severely damaged and dangerous complications have already developed. Stomach diseases not only impair the body's ability to digest food but also affect the entire nutritional process and the function of various internal organs. It can cause serious complications such as severe ulcers, stomach perforation, stomach cancer, and chronic acid reflux, directly threatening life. The most dangerous aspect is that the initial symptoms of stomach diseases are often asymptomatic and easily overlooked, so by the time it's detected, the digestive system has already suffered significant damage."
