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 was fine for a while, but then it came back again. What should I do about severe chronic atrophic gastritis with intestinal metaplasia?Doctor's answer:
In the current situation, it should be considered that this condition is caused by long-term chronic inflammation leading to intestinal metaplasia. This situation may require further treatment, while it is important to pay attention to adjusting dietary habits. Try to have three meals a day at fixed times and in fixed quantities, and avoid spicy and greasy foods. Oral medications such as domperidone and omeprazole can be considered for regulation. At the same time, it is recommended to undergo regular gastroscopy examinations at the hospital to understand the extent of inflammation expansion.
