The treatment principles for chronic gastritis focus on eliminating the cause, alleviating symptoms, and reducing the recurrence of the disease. If there is an infection with Helicobacter pylori, it should be completely eradicated. Additionally, antispasmodic analgesics, gastric mucosal protectants, and acid secretion inhibitors should be used symptomatically. During treatment, attention should be paid to dietary adjustments, consuming soft, easily digestible foods, and avoiding overeating. Meals should be regular and portion-controlled. Stimulants such as strong tea, coffee, and hard liquor should be avoided. During the treatment period, it is important to manage emotional health and engage in appropriate outdoor exercises, as a good mood positively impacts the treatment of chronic gastritis.

How to treat chronic gastritis?

For the treatment of chronic gastritis, it is generally considered necessary to decide the treatment plan based on whether there is a Helicobacter pylori infection. This can be determined through a C13 or C14 breath test. If the test is positive for H. pylori, it indicates a bacterial infection. The typical treatment in this case would involve a quadruple therapy that includes a proton pump inhibitor, two types of antibiotics, and a bismuth agent. If there is no H. pylori infection, symptomatic treatment is generally sufficient, such as inhibiting stomach acid, protecting the stomach lining, increasing gastric motility, etc. Additionally, it is necessary to develop good dietary and living habits. Furthermore, emotional factors are closely related to the activity of chronic gastritis, so maintaining a positive mental attitude is beneficial for digestive system diseases.

Does chronic gastritis require hospitalization?

Whether hospitalization is needed for chronic gastritis depends on the specific condition of the patient. If symptoms are mild, without proliferative ulcers, and clinical manifestations are not severe, symptoms can be improved through dietary adjustments and oral medications that inhibit gastric acid secretion and protect the gastric mucosa; these cases generally do not require hospitalization. However, if there is a confirmed Helicobacter pylori infection accompanied by nausea, stomach pain, and other digestive discomforts, and gastroscopic examination reveals atypical hyperplasia or intestinal metaplasia of the gastric mucosa, these situations necessitate active treatment in a hospital setting. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a doctor according to specific circumstances.)
