Sejong Internal Medicine Clinic in Siheung City: A Review of Rapid Response to Acute Gastritis

After eating oysters over the weekend, I visited the doctor with a severe stomachache and diarrhea that began a few hours later, leaving me feeling quite anxious. The doctor asked me about my diet, the time of onset, and the nature of my pain, first assessing the possibility of food poisoning. He then examined me by pressing on my abdomen and performed a simple test to check for dehydration.
The director explained that my current condition was likely acute gastroenteritis caused by oyster consumption and that we should focus on symptom relief and recovery rather than unnecessary tests or excessive treatment. This gave me confidence. I received painkiller injections and intravenous fluids, and the abdominal pain was noticeably reduced, which was immediately effective. He even gave me specific instructions on dietary intake and what to avoid during my recovery period, making it easy to manage my condition at home. Compared to other internal medicine clinics, he explained not only symptoms but also causes and prevention strategies.
