Now the question arises what disease did Mike Tyson have that made his condition so bad? Let's know about this in detail.
What do health experts say?
Discussing Mike Tyson's health problems, a doctor from the American Gastroenterological Association said, if I was treating Tyson, I would have told him to postpone his fight with Jake Paul. He was suffering from ulcers till some time ago.
The team of doctors said that working hard again in such a situation can be dangerous for your health. The body needs to be rested for the wound to heal.
Let's know what is the problem of gastric ulcer.
Know about gastric ulcers?
Gastric ulcer is also known as stomach ulcer. This happens when the protective layer of the stomach starts getting sore. The problem of stomach ulcers is common, but if it is not treated on time, then there can be a risk of many types of serious health problems. Ulcers bleed continuously, which can cause a lot of blood loss over time.
Bleeding from stomach ulcers can range from mild to severe, in severe cases there is a risk of life-threatening problems.
How to know if someone has an ulcer?
When you have a stomach ulcer, you feel a lot of pain. The pain of an ulcer feels like a burning sensation of acid in the stomach. Many people experience indigestion with stomach ulcers, which means a burning sensation in the stomach as well as a feeling of fullness. You may feel full shortly after starting to eat or a long time after eating. Some people may also have problems like acid reflux and heartburn, nausea and vomiting, bloating, belching, and gas pain.
Some people do not feel stomach ulcers at all, it is called a silent ulcer. Its symptoms are not visible until you have complications like bleeding or perforation.
How to prevent it
Health experts said, due to disturbances in eating habits, there can also be a risk of such problems. Some studies have found that smoking, drinking alcohol, or eating too much oily or acidic food can increase the risk of ulcers. After ulcer treatment or surgery, everyone needs to be very careful about their health.
Matthew Hoshit, a gastroenterologist at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio, said that ulcer surgery is quite challenging. If a person starts training or doing intense exercises prematurely, the consequences can be serious. However, Hoshit also said that it would be difficult to assess Tyson's case, as it is very rare.
