Why does stomach pain not affect appetite?

Patient's question:

I have always had chronic gastritis, and I usually keep some medicine at home, such as Weikangling and Amoxicillin, which are always on hand. Recently, I've been experiencing frequent stomach pain, but it hasn't affected my appetite. Unlike before, when the pain would completely loss my appetite for food, I'm wondering what's going on with me?

Doctor's answer:

What about your situation? How long has it been going on? Then does your abdominal pain have anything to do with your dinner diet? After dinner, does the abdominal pain become more pronounced or relieved? Is the abdominal pain more noticeable during the day or at night? It's best to go to the hospital for an endoscopy examination. Besides, is there nothing wrong? You can also test for Helicobacter pylori. If Helicobacter pylori is positive, it needs to be eradicated.
