SHMLLOWING AND DROPP- ED STOMACH- PTOSIS

AI

The swallowing of air and the

pain or distress from the pie-sure of this air in the stomach ts often mistaken by the patient as due to fermentatlcu of food, stomach ulcer 01- cancer. The treatment suggested is to explain to the patient that it is \i" own nervous- ness or excitability that makes him swallow air. I have frequently met this con- dition in boxers, hockey, basketball and other playtrs, who. in the excitement previous to a game, unconsciously gulp some air into the stomach. Sometimes a soda mint, a piece of peppermint candy. a magnesia tablet, or a little bromide quiets the tendency to gulp air into the stomach.

It has been found that. many air "wallowers are of the narrow type of physique which means that the

for use by ma“ co11eqtoys__ogtawg 1510111861 usually (not. always) hangs 1 low in the

abdomen. This is known as ptosis or "falling" stomach. There is not enough width to the abdomen to allow stomach to hang in a more hori- ‘ zontal position. .

Dr. H. Gaehlinger, Brussels, ln Brusser-Medical. explains the ‘presence of air swallowing 1n ptosls.

The theory Involves the belief that: most patients with ptdsis are dyspeptic and that this gives rise l, L stomach malaise or sickness which canes the swallowing of air. The facts that. the symptom sub- sides with the patient in the lying position, that. it is temporarily ~ cured by food. and. finally, that the wearing of a. support. can cause the drsappearance of air swallowing in cases where the stomach can be raised up or supported, lend support to this theory. i‘

Dr. Gachlinger believes that the _ air swallowing in ptosis 15 due to insufficient pressure or support from the abdominal muscles. These ntuscles, when properly de- veloped, hold the abdominal organs in their proper position and help 1.0 hold body erect, thus preventing 1 stooped or rotuid shoulders.

The thought then is um 1r the tindivldual can acquire calmness or l P0150. can learn to correct hi= 1 gulping habit, and develop his , abdominal muicles by trying to 1 touch his toes-knees straight, or
