Erosive gastritis

There are many common types of diseases, and different diseases have different treatment methods. In the treatment of diseases, the choice of methods is very critical. You cannot choose treatment methods at will, which will not help improve the disease. So how to treat your own diseases? You also need to have a good understanding of your own disease. Erosive gastritis is a very common disease, and this type of disease is very harmful to human health.

When it comes to the treatment of erosive gastritis, the choice of method is also very important. Drug treatment is a commonly used method, but when using this treatment method, you must be careful not to use it arbitrarily, otherwise it will have serious effects on all aspects of the patient's body.

Erosive gastritis:

Erosive gastritis causes

Various exogenous stimuli that cause erosive gastritis, especially ethanol and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, can destroy the gastric mucosal barrier, causing H+ and pepsin to diffuse back into the mucosa and lead to acute erosion of the gastric mucosa. However, some critical illnesses, such as severe trauma, extensive burns, sepsis, intracranial lesions, shock, and failure of vital organs and other severe stress states are more common causes.

Symptoms of erosive gastritis

●Symptoms of erosive gastritis are mostly nonspecific and may include nausea, vomiting, and upper abdominal discomfort. The harm of chronic erosive gastritis to human health cannot be ignored. If it is not treated in time and the development of the disease is not effectively curbed, peptic ulcers and even upper gastrointestinal bleeding will occur, directly endangering the patient's life.

●Most patients are often asymptomatic or have varying degrees of indigestion symptoms such as upper abdominal pain, acid reflux, fullness after meals, loss of appetite, etc. Patients with atrophic gastritis may have anemia, diarrhea, glossitis and emaciation. Some patients with mucosal erosion have obvious upper abdominal pain and may have bleeding. Therefore, patients are reminded that once symptoms of gastrointestinal disease appear, they must seek treatment as soon as possible.

●Erosive gastritis has an acute onset, with sudden upper gastrointestinal bleeding during the course of the primary disease, manifested as vomiting blood and black stools. Black stools alone are rare. Bleeding is often intermittent. Heavy bleeding may cause syncope or shock, accompanied by anemia. During bleeding, there may be dull pain or tenderness in the upper abdomen. Endoscopic examination, especially emergency endoscopy performed within 24 to 48 hours of onset, may reveal gastric mucosal erosion, bleeding, or superficial ulcers, especially in the upper gastric body.

Through the above introduction, we have a good understanding of the causes and manifestations of erosive gastritis. Therefore, when treating such diseases, we can follow all the methods. However, it should be noted that when treating this type of disease, we must persist in the treatment, which will be of great help in stabilizing the disease.
