Patient's question:
I have chronic gastritis. Recently, whenever I experience acid reflux and gas in my stomach, there is a slight pain in the upper right part of my lower back, as if something is pricking it a few times. Is it because my stomach disease has become serious, or is there another problem?Doctor's answer:
It's still quite serious. It's considered related to infection and poor dietary and lifestyle habits, so timely treatment is necessary. It also doesn't rule out conditions like kidney stones or cholecystitis, which require further examination to clarify the condition. Antibiotics and stomach-protecting medications can be used for treatment, and attention should be paid to a light diet.The daily treatment for gastritis patients mainly focuses on symptomatic treatment. Patients can take many oral medications, supplemented with various vitamins, and should pay attention to eating light, easy-to-digest foods.
