Patient's question:
I had stomach problems since elementary school because my mom was often not at home. During school days, I often ate dinner outside, and after consuming some spicy food, I gradually developed gastritis. It's chronic gastritis, can chronic gastritis be cured?Doctor's answer:
Chronic gastritis is usually caused by redness and swelling of the gastric mucosa, which can easily lead to symptoms such as stomach acid and bloating. Generally, oral medications that inhibit stomach acid secretion can be used for treatment. It is important to follow a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Close observation is necessary to check for recurrent nausea. If nausea recurs, it is generally considered related to gastric motility.
