Patient's question:
Friend had been feeling very unwell recently and went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The diagnosis was chronic superficial gastritis with erosion. What are the underlying causes of this condition? How should chronic superficial gastritis with erosion be treated? I hope the doctor can provide some good advice. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
If you have chronic superficial gastritis regularly, and besides the symptoms of erosion, this should be considered as the symptoms of acute recurrence of chronic gastritis. It is recommended to pay attention to actively adjusting your dietary habits, eating more vegetables, fruits, and light foods as much as possible, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Have three meals at fixed times and quantities, and avoid overeating. At the same time, you can consider taking bismuth-containing pectin orally to protect the gastric mucosa for treatment. Taking omeprazole orally to inhibit gastric acid secretion should gradually improve.
