Patient's question:
I didn't eat dinner properly because I was a boarding student in high school and the school food was very bad. After three years of high school, I developed gastritis. In our family, we usually dip dumplings in minced ginger, but my mom doesn't let me eat anything spicy. Can people with gastritis eat ginger?Doctor's answer:
If the patient confirms having gastritis, the condition you mentioned is not recommended to eat. Ginger, except for vinegar, is generally not advised to consume. After all, this food has a certain, which can exacerbate the patient's gastritis symptoms. It is usually recommended to follow a light diet, avoiding greasy, spicy, and extremely cold foods. Foods that are too sour, too sweet, or too hard should also be avoided as much as possible. Follow the doctor's advice and take medication regularly. Many antacids are often needed, in addition to symptomatic medications, to treat the condition.
