Patient's question:
My aunt, who is 50 years old this year, has always had a bad stomach. In the past, she always saw traditional Chinese medicine doctors and only knew about stomach problems. Now, she had a gastroscopy at the hospital and was told she has chronic superficial gastritis of the antrum and a gastric angle ulcer (awaiting pathology). Hello, how should one treat chronic superficial gastritis of the antrum and a gastric angle ulcer (awaiting pathology)?Doctor's answer:
For the patient's current condition of chronic gastritis, treatment involves the use of some antacids and symptomatic medications. Pathologically, it is a clinical manifestation caused by excessive gastric acid leading to damage of the gastric mucosa in the gastric antrum. Additionally, a detailed pathological examination has already been conducted. It is also necessary to seek advice from a doctor based on the examination results. The main purpose of the pathological examination is to rule out malignant diseases. During treatment, it is important to follow a light and regular diet and avoid getting cold.
