Learn about the four symptoms caused by gastritis and their treatments.

Perhaps because I ate freely during the Chuseok holiday, my stomach started to feel burning.

I alternated eating hearty food and drinking cold beverages with ice, and now I feel bloated and indigestion.

Even though I kept drinking beverages because I felt stuffy, my stomach didn't feel any better.

I ate a lot of spicy and salty food without restraint because it had been a long time.

I also have bloating and think I ate too much, so I couldn't go to the hospital because of the holiday, and I took medication temporarily.

I plan to try eating it, and if it doesn't get better, I will go to the hospital after the holiday ends.

 

Learn about gastritis before your stomachache worsens.

Gastritis is a condition characterized by inflammation in the stomach that causes indigestion, heartburn, vomiting, and other symptoms.

The causes include Helicobacter pylori infection, medication, irregular eating habits, and stress.

Symptoms of gastritis include abdominal pain, indigestion, bloating, and nausea.

Additionally, there are various symptoms that may or may not be present.

It is said that symptoms alone may not be sufficient to accurately determine whether it is gastritis or not.

If gastritis is left untreated, it can lead to stomach ulcers and potentially more serious illnesses.

 

There are both chronic and acute gastritis.

Treatment involves stopping the causative drugs, foods, etc., and taking medication.

Since causes and symptoms vary from person to person, appropriate medication and lifestyle modifications are necessary.

Use medication to neutralize gastritis, and if bacteria are present, administer antibiotics.

Antibiotics are usually taken for 1 to 2 weeks, with the entire treatment lasting about 2 to 3 months.
