Hello. Gastritis refers to damage to the gastric mucosa caused by various inflammatory factors. Symptoms include upper abdominal discomfort, bloating, and belching. The pain pattern follows the sequence of eating - pain - relief. Treatment involves reducing the use of drugs that damage the gastric mucosa. The diet should be regular. Avoid excessively cold or hot foods, as well as spicy and irritating foods; medications can include drugs that protect the gastric mucosa, those that regulate gastrointestinal motility, antacids, and spasmolytic and analgesic drugs.
