Gastric antral mucosal elevation, how to treat chronic superficial gastritis?

Patient's question:

Pyloric gland mucosa protrusion, how to treat chronic superficial gastritis? Suddenly being diagnosed with this disease is really shocking and sad. An illness I've never heard of suddenly struck me, causing a heavy blow. I don't know if this disease is serious or if it will cost a lot of money...

Doctor's answer:

You recently discovered chronic gastritis with raised gastric mucosa during your physical examination, indicating inflammation in your stomach. The protrusions generally have fibrotic lesions, which are considered precancerous. It is necessary to perform a biopsy to determine whether they are benign or malignant. It is recommended to consult the gastroenterology department of your hospital for follow-up. The doctor can interpret the biopsy results to clarify the condition. It may be considered to surgically remove the protrusions, and regular follow-up with gastroscopy is recommended. Additionally, take stomach-protecting medications and avoid drinking beer. Maintain a light diet.
