The results of the endoscopic examination showed chronic atrophic gastritis, and intestinal metaplasia has been intermittent for a year. Persistent abdominal pain has been experienced. It is unknown if you have a Helicobacter pylori infection. If so, treatment with antibiotics should be initiated first. Honey water also has a protective effect on the gastric mucosa. Drinking a cup in the morning can help.For the patient, if the condition of chronic atrophic gastritis is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, the condition may recur. Additionally, the patient should pay attention to their diet and psychological care.
