What is the reason for shortness of breath with gastritis?

Patient's question:

I have superficial gastritis and gastric angle erosion. I have been taking medicine prescribed by a doctor for 20 days. In the past two days, I have been experiencing some shortness of breath, which is a new symptom for me. What are the causes of gastritis and gastric angle erosion?

Doctor's answer:

Due to the symptoms caused by gastritis, it generally leads to pain under the xiphoid process, acid reflux, belching, and abdominal pain. Your condition requires active medication treatment, and some may also cause chest tightness. For your situation, I recommend first focusing on rest, and a light, warm, and easily digestible diet is very important. It's advisable to eat small meals frequently. I suggest you actively take medication for treatment, and it is necessary to have medication treatment for more than 4 weeks. In addition to timely treatment for gastritis, friends with the condition should maintain a positive mindset to face the disease. Only in this way can patients receive timely and symptomatic treatment.
