Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach feels dull pain sometimes with symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. I went to the hospital and it got better for a while, but then it started again. Is it possible for chronic gastritis to turn into cancer?Doctor's answer:
Chronic gastritis, basically, will never develop into cancer, mainly caused by inflammation transmission, while cancer is primarily due to problems with cell division. Therefore, chronic gastritis will never develop into cancer. However, chronic gastritis can also lead to other complications, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, weight loss, and fatigue. Chronic gastritis is mainly treated by anti-inflammatory measures, such as taking many anti-inflammatory drugs or corticosteroids. For specifics, it's best to check with a doctor.
