Patient's question:
Recently, my stomach hasn't been feeling well. I often feel tired all over, and my appetite is poor. I'm in bad spirits. My stomach has been hurting badly lately, sometimes even bloating, which is extremely uncomfortable. I also frequently feel nauseous. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they found that I have erosive gastritis.Doctor's answer:
Hello, most cases of erosive gastritis are characterized by symptoms such as mild abdominal pain, reduced appetite, post-meal fullness, acid reflux, etc. Patients with atrophic gastritis may experience anemia, dehydration, glossitis, diarrhea, etc. In some cases, patients with mucosal erosion may have more pronounced upper abdominal pain and may also experience bleeding. You can consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner; with persistent treatment, it can be cured.In daily life, it is important to drink plenty of water, maintain a regular lifestyle, and eat a balanced diet. Avoid overeating and focus on consuming liquid or semi-liquid, easily digestible foods. Keep a positive mood. Drink less cold water and avoid eating ice pops. Instead, consume more warm-natured fruits, such as lychees, longans, peaches, jujubes, bayberries, walnuts, apricots, oranges, and cherries. Additionally, avoid spending long periods in air-conditioned rooms.
