Gastroparesis is a medical condition that affects the stomach's ability to empty its contents properly. This delayed gastric emptying can lead to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, bloating, and abdominal pain. The condition can be caused by various factors, including diabetes, certain medications, and nerve damage. Diagnosis typically involves tests like gastric emptying studies, and treatment may include dietary changes, medications, or in severe cases, surgery. Managing gastroparesis often requires a multidisciplinary approach to improve quality of life and alleviate symptoms.
