Does bile reflux gastritis require hospitalization?

If bile reflux gastritis is not severe, it generally does not require hospitalization, and you can recuperate at home. Treatments should be based on individual clinical symptoms and may include medications that reduce stomach acid secretion and protect the gastric mucosa to control the condition. It is important to avoid overly greasy, hard-to-digest foods and spicy, irritating foods. Eating smaller, more frequent meals and chewing slowly can usually prevent the condition from becoming particularly severe. However, if the condition is serious enough to affect normal life, hospital treatment is necessary.

Can bile reflux gastritis cause chest pain?

Once symptoms such as abdominal bloating, acid reflux, and belching are noticed and diagnosed as bile reflux gastritis, there could be chest pain which should be noted. This supposed chest pain is related to the esophagus; therefore, it occurs in the center of the chest, not on the sides. In such cases, symptomatic medical treatment can be applied. Typically, for bile reflux gastritis, proton pump inhibitors along with mucosal protectants and gastrointestinal prokinetic drugs can be used for treatment. Drugs that improve bile metabolism may also be used. Additionally, it's important to note in terms of diet, that chest pain is not necessarily caused entirely by reflux and other causes of chest pain should also be ruled out.

Can people with bile reflux gastritis do heavy work?

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.

What should be paid attention to for bile reflux gastritis?

Bile reflux gastritis is caused by factors such as abnormalities in the pyloric sphincter, gastric surgery, and gastrointestinal motility disorders, leading to the reflux of pancreatic juices, bile, and other contents from the duodenum, which causes damage to the gastric mucosa and leads to chronic gastritis. Its treatment primarily includes two aspects: medication and lifestyle adjustments. If the patient is infected with Helicobacter pylori, treatment with medication should first aim to eradicate Helicobacter pylori. Additionally, drugs that enhance gastrointestinal motility, gastric mucosal protectants, bile acid drugs, and acid-suppressing drugs can be used to treat bile reflux gastritis. Apart from medication, diet is also crucial. It is important to minimize consumption of unhealthy foods, diversify one's diet, focus on foods high in vitamins, avoid prolonged and excessive alcohol consumption and smoking, maintain a positive mood, and ensure adequate sleep.
