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 is a relatively common clinical disease in gastroenterology, mainly including chronic superficial gastritis, chronic erosive gastritis, and chronic atrophic gastritis. The clinical manifestations are diverse and there are no specific signs or symptoms. Most patients with Helicobacter pylori infection do not show obvious symptoms, while a minority of patients may experience nausea, vomiting, and postprandial fullness in the upper abdomen, among other symptoms of indigestion. Most cases of chronic gastritis are discovered during physical examinations or endoscopic examinations. The main principles of treatment for chronic gastritis are dietary adjustments and oral medication. It is important to maintain regular eating habits, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and pay attention to one's daily life and routines.

What should be noted for chronic gastritis with erosion?

For chronic gastritis and gastric erosion, it is important to control the diet by eating fresh vegetables and foods that are easy to digest. Avoid overly spicy and cold foods. Additionally, adjust your daily routine to avoid staying up late and maintain a reasonable schedule. Also, control your emotions to prevent excessive stress and fatigue. Appropriate medical treatment should be considered, such as using medications to protect the stomach lining, reduce stomach acid secretion, and appropriately using antibiotics for treatment. Most importantly, regular check-ups are crucial. (Please take medications under the guidance of a doctor.)

What are the symptoms of chronic gastritis?

Most patients with chronic gastritis exhibit atypical clinical symptoms, often presenting as gastrointestinal dyspepsia symptoms, such as upper abdominal bloating, irregular and dull pain, belching, loss of appetite, weight loss, fatigue, and increased upper abdominal discomfort after eating. Patients with chronic gastritis often do not have significant abnormal physical signs; some may only experience mild upper abdominal tenderness or discomfort when pressed. If the gastric mucosa is eroded, occult blood may be positive, but patients presenting with vomiting blood or black stools are rare. Some patients may experience anemia due to long-term loss of appetite or minor bleeding, and severe anemia may present with symptoms related to anemia.

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 are the symptoms of chronic gastritis?

The symptoms of chronic gastritis are mainly digestion-related, such as nausea, vomiting, acid reflux, abdominal bloating, and stomach pain. Belching is a more prominent symptom, with food easily refluxing back up to the throat. Many patients with chronic gastritis have atypical symptoms, and Helicobacter pylori infection is often discovered during examinations. Patients with this type of infection need treatment for Helicobacter pylori, which clinically often involves a triple therapy consisting of two antibiotics plus a proton pump inhibitor or a mucosal protective agent. It is also necessary to adjust the diet appropriately. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a doctor, based on the specific situation.)
