Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, for some reason, I have been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit, with a persistent dull pain in my stomach and sometimes symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. After visiting the hospital and feeling better for a while, it started again. How is chronic superficial gastritis with erosion discovered?Doctor's answer:
The patient's symptoms of stomach pain may be related to gastritis, as well as other conditions such as peptic ulcers. Common symptoms of gastritis often manifest as heartburn, acid reflux, stomach bloating, stomach pain, and many other clinical manifestations. This tendency to vomit is often related to insufficient gastric motility. If the patient's condition has not yet been diagnosed, it is necessary to go to the gastroenterology department of the hospital on an empty stomach in the morning for examinations such as endoscopy. If the patient has erosive gastritis, the condition may be more severe, and it is often recommended to use many antacids, in addition to symptomatic medications for treatment.
