Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, for some reason, I have been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit, with a dull pain in my stomach sometimes accompanied by symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. After visiting the hospital and feeling better for a while, it started again. What should I do about severe chronic superficial gastritis?Doctor's answer:
After surgery, pay attention to keeping the wound clean and hygienic, taking medication regularly, and undergoing follow-up examinations as needed. Before and after surgery, be mindful of maintaining stable and unhealthy dietary habits, avoiding spicy, irritating, and greasy foods, quitting smoking and alcohol, following a low-salt diet, and consuming foods that are easy to digest. Discontinue medications that irritate the stomach. Emotions are also one of the causes of stomach diseases. Negative emotions can lead to imbalances in gastrointestinal activity and endocrine secretion, so it's important to relax and be patient with treatment.
