Patient's question:
My job involves frequent business travel. Sometimes, when necessary, I have to have dinner with clients, including drinking beer. Recently, I suspect that my gastritis may be due to irregular eating habits. I'm taking medication, but I'm not sure if I can drink beer during treatment. Can people with gastritis still drink alcohol?Doctor's answer:
It is not possible. The etiology of superficial gastritis is not yet very clear, so the main treatment is symptomatic. Depending on the specific condition, the following measures can be taken: ① Medications to protect the gastric mucosa, as well as traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Based on the patient's clinical diagnostic symptoms and characteristics, combined with etiology and pathology, differential diagnosis and treatment can be implemented for classification and regulation. In addition to medication for gastritis, patients also need to pay attention to nursing aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a top-tier hospital for diagnosis, so as to obtain good treatment effects.
