Understanding

Gastritis


Gastritis is characterized by the inflammation, irritation, and potential erosion of the stomach lining. This condition can lead to stomach ulcers, bleeding, and even stomach cancer. Two primary causes of stomach inflammation are erosive gastritis and non-erosive gastritis. Erosive gastritis involves the erosion of the stomach lining, whereas non-erosive gastritis brings about changes in the stomach lining. Gastritis can occur suddenly as acute gastritis or develop gradually as chronic gastritis. In most cases, it doesn’t lead to severe complications and can improve with proper treatment.

GASTRITIS

understanding the Causes of Gastritis


Gastritis typically arises when damage occurs to the protective mucus barrier in the stomach, allowing digestive juices to inflame the stomach lining. This condition can worsen for individuals with underlying conditions like liver disease, kidney disease, or respiratory failure. Generally, gastritis or chronic inflammation of the stomach lining can be triggered by:

Excessive alcohol consumption
Chronic or severe stress
Frequent vomiting
Overuse of aspirin or anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen
Bacterial infections (such as H. pylori)
Bile reflux from the liver or gallbladder
Infections caused by bacteria or viruses
Consumption of spicy, fatty, fried, salty, or acidic foods
Drinking an excess of caffeinated beverages
Smoking

Certain medications can also contribute to gastritis, including:

Pain relievers (NSAIDs) like aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen
Corticosteroids
Chemotherapy drugs

To understand effective strategies for managing gastritis and to receive treatment, reach out to your nearest Specialized Gastroenterology and Medical Associates facility to request a consultation with a GI specialist.
