The main symptoms of chronic gastritis include upper abdominal pain, belching, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, etc. It can be definitively diagnosed through a gastroscopy, which may reveal edema, hyperemia, and erosion of the gastric mucosa, thereby confirming the diagnosis of chronic gastritis. Once diagnosed, targeted and standardized treatment should be administered. Moreover, dietary habits must be carefully managed. Smoking and drinking alcohol should be avoided, as well as consuming spicy, fried, barbecued, and greasy foods. Fruit intake should also be controlled; for instance, only half a peach per day is advisable to avoid overconsumption. Overeating can exacerbate the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, making chronic gastritis more likely to recur. Additionally, one should not consume fruit taken directly from the refrigerator as such cold foods are strictly discouraged.

What are the symptoms of gastritis?

Common symptoms of chronic gastritis include upper abdominal distension and pain, belching, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, poor appetite, indigestion, and feelings of fullness after eating. Gastroscope examination can reveal signs like reddening, swelling, and erosion of the gastric mucosa, which can be diagnosed as chronic superficial gastritis. If there is glandular atrophy of the gastric mucosa observed, a diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis can be made through a biopsy. Treatment options include acid suppression and gastric protection, promoting gastric motility, and protecting the gastric mucosa. It is also recommended to perform a Carbon-14 breath test to determine the presence of Helicobacter pylori infection. If the infection is positive, eradication treatment for Helicobacter pylori is necessary. Chronic atrophic gastritis has a certain risk of turning cancerous, so it is advised to follow a diet that is light and easy to digest.

What department should I go to for gastritis?

When gastritis is present, symptoms such as abdominal pain, acid reflux, belching, and bloating typically occur. Clinically, one can register under the Gastroenterology department, as the stomach is part of the digestive system. If the hospital is small and lacks a Gastroenterology department, registering under the Internal Medicine department could be considered. For gastritis diagnosis, registration should be made under Gastroenterology, and examinations such as gastroscopy and tests for Helicobacter pylori are required. Both gastroscopy and Helicobacter pylori tests require fasting for more accurate results. Moreover, treatment in Gastroenterology is more targeted.

What should I do if I have a flare-up of gastritis?

When experiencing gastritis, it is important to actively use medical treatments, such as gastroprotective agents that suppress gastric acid secretion and antibiotics. At the same time, dietary adjustments should be made. The recurrence of gastritis is directly related to irregular eating habits. It's essential to follow a light diet, consume more vegetables and fruits, and eat less spicy, greasy, and stimulating foods. Additionally, avoid stimulants like strong tea, coffee, and hard liquor. Consume more vegetables to increase dietary fiber, and eat foods that are gentle on the stomach lining and easy to digest, such as millet porridge, rice soup, vegetable soup, and steamed egg custard.
