Patient's question:
I'm doing great physically, and I also enjoy exercising regularly. Recently, I've noticed that I feel full after eating just a little, and sometimes I experience bloating. Feeling quite frustrated, I went to the hospital. The doctor said it's gastritis, which is a term I've never heard of before. I'd like to ask, what exactly is gastritis?Doctor's answer:
Gastric refers to a condition characterized by a feeling of fullness and oppression in the lower abdomen, stuffiness in the chest and throat, an absence of visible swelling upon palpation, and a lack of pain when pressed. It is often accompanied by chest and throat fullness, bloating after eating, and relief from belching. This condition typically develops gradually and is chronic, with symptoms fluctuating in severity, recurring frequently, and being difficult to cure. I hope this helps.
