Does gastritis spread to others?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have chronic gastritis. My family members also have poor stomach health. My girlfriend's stomach isn't great either, but it's not as bad as it is now. Hello, does stomach disease spread?

Doctor's answer:

Chronic gastritis is not contagious, but if those around you who are close to you suffer from stomach problems, it is not good for you. Unlike saliva and urine, which may contain some bacteria, prolonged exposure can interfere with the body's immunity and make it easier to get sick. Diseases often begin to infiltrate from the weaker parts of the body. In addition to active treatment, patients also need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life, as a positive mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease.
