Gastroenterologist Lyudmila Sukhorukova: gastritis can have a painless form.
Gastritis is a disease in which the stomach tissues become inflamed. Usually people think about gastritis when they feel pain in the stomach after eating certain foods, but doctor Sukhorukova stated: with gastritis, a person may not feel pain.
“Gastritis may not be accompanied by pain and does not always lead to an ulcer,” – noted the gastroenterologist in a comment to NEWS.ru.
Lyudmila Sukhorukova added that gastritis is important to treat and keep under control. Once neglected, it can become a factor provoking life-threatening complications: in particular, it can be peritonitis, internal bleeding.
Additionally, the specialist advised to avoid eating large amounts of sour, spicy, bitter or excessively hot food and completely eliminate carbonated drinks from the diet – this will have a beneficial effect on the condition of the gastric mucosa.
