Patient's question:
My mom says every day that her stomach feels uncomfortable, with stomach bloating and pain, sometimes nausea. The gastroscopy said it was superficial gastritis, but after taking both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, it hasn't improved. She has already had three gastroscopies. How can superficial gastritis be effectively treated?Doctor's answer:
Superficial gastritis with erosion falls into the category of chronic stomach conditions. Your situation is caused by damp-heat in the spleen and stomach, leading to the inability of clear qi to ascend and the failure of turbid qi to rise, resulting in symptoms such as stomach bloating, pain, nausea, etc. Generally, it is difficult to cure with conventional medications. Traditional Chinese medicine has accumulated many highly effective treatment methods through long-term clinical practice. It is recommended that you use traditional Chinese herbs like black alum, black jujube, walnut kernels, gardenia, poria, cardamom, magnolia bark, sparganium, pangolin scales, bupleurum, malt, upper scapula, lower scapula, safflower, Amomum villosum, iron gall powder, propolis, honey, and beeswax in combination for treatment, which can achieve a complete cure.The combination of these traditional Chinese herbs can thoroughly eliminate damp-heat in the spleen and stomach, cleanse turbid qi from the gastrointestinal tract, rapidly repair the gastric mucosa, enhance the protective barrier of the gastric mucosa, and rebalance the spleen and stomach functions. This will completely eliminate the root cause of the disease, thereby achieving a complete cure.
