The regulation of chronic gastritis mainly involves adherence to dietary routines, appropriate outdoor exercises, and regular daily living patterns. In terms of diet, it is advisable to eat smaller, more frequent meals and avoid spicy and irritating foods, focusing primarily on nutritious food. Engaging in appropriate outdoor exercises can help regulate both physical and mental health. Since there is a direct relationship between stomach diseases and emotions, maintaining a good mood and avoiding irritability and tension are also very important for the regulation of chronic gastritis. Finally, it is crucial to maintain a regular daily routine, go to bed early and rise early, rest on time, avoid staying up late excessively, and prevent overwork, as these aspects are very important in the regulation of chronic gastritis.

What are the symptoms of chronic gastritis?

Chronic gastritis does not have specific symptoms, and the severity of the symptoms does not necessarily correspond to the severity of the disease. Common symptoms include pain in the upper middle abdomen, belching, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, a feeling of fullness after eating, poor appetite, and indigestion. In severe cases of atrophic gastritis, patients may experience symptoms such as anemia and weight loss. Some patients may also experience psychological symptoms such as anxiety and depression. If a patient experiences the above symptoms, it is recommended to promptly conduct a gastroscopy to confirm the diagnosis. It is also advisable to conduct a carbon-14 breath test to determine the presence of Helicobacter pylori infection, as this infection is a major cause of chronic gastritis. After confirming the diagnosis, appropriate treatment should be administered.

What should I do about acid reflux from chronic gastritis?

There are many causes of chronic gastritis. The first is chronic gastritis caused by acid reflux, followed by the consumption of irritant beverages, eating irritating foods, and some medications that cause changes to the gastric mucosa. Bile reflux can also cause irritation and inflammation of the gastric mucosa. Other factors include changes in the environment, mental stress, and various irregularities in life, all of which can lead to chronic gastritis. If a patient experiences acid reflux, it is necessary to suppress stomach acid by administering acid-suppressing medications, as well as medications that protect the gastric mucosa to prevent chronic gastritis caused by acid reflux.

Does chronic gastritis require medication?

Chronic gastritis often has no clinical symptoms, but this condition still requires medication treatment. The duration of medication must be long-term and regular, primarily focusing on drugs that suppress gastric acid secretion and protect the gastric mucosa. If the inflammation is relatively significant, antibiotics can be chosen; in cases of Helicobacter pylori infection, a triple therapy, which includes two antibiotics and a gastric mucosa protective agent, can be opted for. Additionally, it is crucial to pay attention to daily life routines, eat a light diet, avoid raw, greasy, and fried foods, and rest well to gradually recover from gastritis.

What is chronic gastritis?

Gastritis is divided into acute and chronic types. Chronic gastritis is primarily caused by various reasons that lead to chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa or atrophic changes. This condition is quite common in clinical practice. Generally, about 85% of patients undergoing gastroscopy exhibit such symptoms, and with increasing age, the incidence of atrophic diseases gradually increases. The symptoms mainly manifest as abdominal pain, predominantly in the upper abdomen, bloating, belching, and even symptoms of black stools, which, if present, indicate bleeding of the gastric mucosa.
