Is thread embedding useful for chronic gastritis

Gastric disease is a very common disease in life, and many of them are chronic, such as chronic gastritis, which is a typical one. Chronic gastritis requires long-term treatment. Some patients try various methods but the results are not very ideal. Therefore, we will try treatment methods similar to thread embedding, hoping to achieve better results. So, is thread embedding useful for chronic gastritis? Let’s take a look below.

It is not recommended to use this unscientific method of treatment.

treat

Most cases of chronic superficial gastritis can be reversed, and a small number can turn into chronic atrophic gastritis. Chronic atrophic gastritis gradually worsens with age, but mild cases can be reversed. Therefore, the treatment of chronic gastritis should start as early as possible from chronic superficial gastritis, and treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis should also be persisted.

1. Eliminate the cause

Eliminate various factors that may cause the disease, such as avoiding food and medicine that are highly irritating to the gastric mucosa, and quitting smoking and drinking. Pay attention to food hygiene and avoid overeating. Actively treat chronic diseases of the mouth, nose, and pharynx. Strengthen exercise to improve physical fitness.

2. Medication

Atropine, propantheline, belladonna mixture, etc. can be used when pain occurs. For increased gastric acid, PPI proton pump inhibitors such as rabeprazole, lansoprazole, omeprazole, etc. can be used. For those with milder symptoms, H2 receptor blockers such as cimetidine, ranitidine, aluminum hydroxide ammonium, etc. can be used. Those who lack gastric acid or have no gastric acid can be given 1% dilute hydrochloric acid or pepsin mixture. Those with indigestion can add digestive aids such as pancreatic enzyme tablets and multi-enzyme tablets. Patients who are found to have Helicobacter pylori in gastric mucosal biopsy should be given additional antibiotic treatment. For patients with obvious bile reflux, metoclopramide and metoclopramide can be used to enhance gastric antral motility and reduce bile reflux. Aluminum carbonate tablets, cholestyramine, and sucralfate can bind to bile acids and relieve symptoms.

prevention

1. Keep a cheerful spirit

Mental depression or excessive tension and fatigue can easily cause pyloric sphincter dysfunction, bile reflux and chronic gastritis.

2. Quit smoking and drinking

The harmful components in tobacco can increase gastric acid secretion and produce harmful irritation to the gastric mucosa. Excessive smoking can cause bile reflux. Excessive drinking or long-term consumption of strong liquor can cause congestion, edema, and even erosion of the gastric mucosa, and significantly increase the incidence of chronic gastritis. You should quit smoking and drinking.

3. Use with caution and avoid using drugs that damage the gastric mucosa

Long-term abuse of such drugs can damage the gastric mucosa, causing chronic gastritis and ulcers.

4. Actively treat oropharyngeal infection

Do not swallow sputum, nasal mucus and other bacteria-carrying secretions into the stomach, which may cause chronic gastritis.

5. Pay attention to your diet

Avoid irritating foods such as overly sour or spicy foods, as well as raw, cold, and indigestible foods. Chew slowly when eating so that the food can be fully mixed with saliva, which facilitates digestion and reduces stomach irritation. The diet should be regular, quantitative, and nutritious, and eat more foods rich in vitamins A, B, and C. Avoid taking stimulating drinks such as strong tea and strong coffee.
