Patient's question:
A week ago, I was hospitalized for 4 days with acute gastritis and received intravenous drips. When I went back to the doctor, they only prescribed three days of medication (Pantoprazole Sodium Enteric-Coated Tablets, a total of 3 tablets). After taking them, I still feel uncomfortable in my stomach and have a bitter taste in my mouth.Doctor's answer:
Gastritis is an acute or chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa caused by various different etiologies, often accompanied by epithelial damage, mucosal inflammatory reactions, and epithelial regeneration. Gastritis is one of the most common digestive system diseases. After the cure of chronic gastritis, proper care should be taken, otherwise it may recur. It can be completely cured with proper treatment. However, it is necessary to take medication appropriately and follow the prescribed course of treatment. Second, proper care should be taken, avoiding foods and medications that stimulate the stomach, and maintaining a healthy mental state. Only in this way can the stomach disease be completely cured.
