What should be noted in mild atrophic gastritis?

Patient's question:

Originally it was superficial gastritis, but the recent gastroscopy confirmed the result as chronic superficial gastritis of the antrum. Biopsy samples were taken from the antrum, and pathology confirmed (antrum) chronic atrophic gastritis. What should be noted for mild atrophic gastritis?

Doctor's answer:

In traditional Chinese medicine, this atrophic gastritis is divided into several types, and it is necessary to consult a local TCM practitioner for a specific four-diagnosis and syndrome differentiation to formulate a treatment plan. Blindly using medication not only ignores the correct approach to diagnosis but also requires the TCM practitioner to first examine the condition in detail. The condition of gastritis is very serious, and it is recommended that patients seek immediate treatment and follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to dietary issues, avoid spicy and irritating foods to prevent worsening the condition.
