Patient's question:
Recently, I have been suffering from severe gastritis and cannot eat solid food. Every day, I feel bloated and nauseous, and when I try to eat, I vomit. When I'm hungry, I get heartburn. I can only eat some porridge and drink some soupy, watery things every day. It's so sad. Hello, I have severe gastritis and cannot eat dinner. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Eat less and more often, eat at fixed times and in fixed amounts to prevent overeating. For patients with mild conditions, a low-fiber semi-liquid diet can be adopted. During the recovery period, low-fiber soft meals can be consumed. If calorie intake is insufficient, a method of combining dry and liquid foods can be used for snacks, such as 1 cup of milk with 2 pieces of biscuits, 1 cup of malted milk, or boiled eggs. (2) To prevent anemia or malnutrition. Patients with atrophic gastritis often suffer from iron deficiency anemia. The diet should provide sufficient and balanced energy and various nutrients. Gastritis causes significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly and eat more fruits and vegetables.
