Bile reflux gastritis is a disease of the digestive system. Avoid heavy physical labor as much as possible; engaging in strenuous physical activities can lead to stomach spasms, twitching, and increased contractions, and the bile reflux can irritate the esophageal mucosa. It is also important to rest regularly. When lying down, try to elevate the head to help alleviate the symptoms of reflux. Maintain a light diet; avoid overeating, and do not consume foods that are too greasy, too sweet, too sour, too spicy, or difficult to digest. Strictly abstain from alcohol.

Can bile reflux gastritis heal itself?

Bile reflux gastritis is generally difficult to cure because it has multiple causes, such as gastric emptying disorders, dysfunction of the pyloric sphincter, and post-cholecystectomy patients, which can all lead to bile reflux gastritis. Many cases are related to gastric functional disorders. This condition often recurs and can be treated by suppressing stomach acid and increasing gastric motility, which tends to be effective. At the same time, diet and living habits are also very important. Eating small meals frequently and avoiding raw, cold, greasy, and spicy food can help with bile reflux gastritis.

Which part is good for moxibustion in bile reflux gastritis?

Bile reflux gastritis can be treated with moxibustion on acupuncture points such as Zhongwan and Shenque, as well as the back-shu points Wei-shu and Pi-shu. This treatment can strengthen the spleen, boost qi, nourish the stomach, and relieve pain. The main symptoms of bile reflux gastritis include upper abdominal pain, belching, acid reflux, nausea, and vomiting. A gastroscopy showing bile reflux into the stomach or bile patches on the stomach wall can diagnose bile reflux gastritis. The primary cause is largely related to poor gastric motility. In terms of treatment, the focus is on enhancing gastric motility, protecting the gastric mucosa, and acid suppression. Additionally, increasing physical activity can promote gastrointestinal motility and strengthen gastric dynamics, playing a positive role in alleviating the symptoms of bile reflux gastritis.

What medicine is used for bile reflux gastritis?

Bile reflux gastritis is often caused by the retrograde movement of bile from the duodenum into the stomach, leading to a series of symptoms. These can include upper abdominal pain, bloating, heartburn, and a bitter taste in the mouth. The fundamental cause of this condition is usually insufficient gastric motility or gastrointestinal motility. Regarding medication, the first choice generally includes acid-suppressing and pro-motility drugs, such as proton pump inhibitors combined with gastric motility drugs. Additionally, aluminum magnesium carbonate has the effect of neutralizing stomach acid and bile salts, which can help with bile reflux gastritis. At the same time, it is necessary to develop good dietary and living habits, and avoid excessive eating and drinking, as well as stimulants like tobacco and alcohol. (Specific medication use should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor.)

How to re-examine bile reflux gastritis

Biliary reflux gastritis requires follow-up examination through gastroscopy to clarify the condition of the cure, treatment effectiveness, the severity of the condition, and other aspects. The main causes of biliary reflux gastritis are due to the relaxation of the pyloric sphincter or a decrease in gastric motility. Once these conditions occur, it is necessary to actively test for Helicobacter pylori to check for its infection. If positive, it is crucial to eradicate Helicobacter pylori actively and to use some bile-absorbing medications, such as magnesium aluminum carbonate, among others.

Can people with bile reflux gastritis eat walnuts?

People with bile reflux gastritis can eat a small amount of walnuts. Those with bile reflux gastritis should avoid overly spicy and irritating foods, and should refrain from smoking, drinking alcohol, strong tea, coffee, high-fat and high-calorie foods to prevent relaxation of the pyloric sphincter, which can exacerbate the symptoms of bile reflux gastritis. It is also necessary to take medications that absorb bile, such as magnesium aluminum carbonate, aluminum magnesium suspension, etc., and to use medications that promote gastric motility and suppress gastric acid secretion for treatment. Medications that promote gastric motility may include mosapride, domperidone, itopride, etc. (Use of medications should be under the guidance of a physician)
