What complications may severe antral gastritis cause?

Antral gastritis is a relatively common stomach disease. If antral gastritis is severe, it may even lead to some complications. It often causes abdominal distension and pain in patients, and may even cause malignant changes. Because of long-term torture from antral gastritis, some patients are prone to nervous disorders and excessive mood swings. After suffering from antral gastritis, in addition to regular treatment, the focus is also on conditioning.

What are the complications of antral gastritis ?

1. Abdominal distension and pain. Antral gastritis is more common in men over 30 years old. The patient may experience a feeling of distension in the upper abdomen, dull or severe pain in the upper abdomen, which often occurs periodically and may be accompanied by belching, acid reflux, burning sensation in the upper abdomen, nausea, vomiting, weight loss, etc. A few may have bleeding, and some may be asymptomatic.

2. Cause gastric malignancy. Antral gastritis is a chronic inflammation that occurs in the gastric antrum and can generally be divided into two types: superficial and atrophic. Observational studies have found gastric malignancy. It is closely related to atrophic antral gastritis and antral gastritis. The risk of malignant transformation of atrophic antral gastritis is 20 times greater than that of normal people, and the incidence of atrophic gastritis is gastric malignant transformation. The incidence rate in high-incidence areas has increased significantly.

3. Cause mental disorders. Antral gastritis is closely related to mental factors, and symptoms can be aggravated by emotional fluctuations or fear and tension. It is also prone to attacks when the parasympathetic nervous system is excited.

Antral gastritis is more important when the disease is serious.

1. Eat a mild diet:

1. Non-irritating: Food that will not stimulate the secretion of gastric juice or damage the gastric mucosal tissue.

2. Low fiber: Fiber mostly comes from plant foods, which are not easily digested and absorbed by the human body, such as bran, fruit skins and seeds, bean skins, and coarse tissues in vegetables. These relatively rough substances can easily damage the gastrointestinal tract and should be avoided. However, if a person has a healthy mouth and teeth and can fully chew food and mix it completely with saliva, there is no need to completely restrict eating.

3. Easy to digest: In addition to fiber, the tendons and glue of some animals are also difficult to digest. The cooking method is also very important, steaming or boiling. Stewed and pureed foods are easier to digest. Fried, roasted and deep-fried foods are less digestible.

4. Adequate nutrition: Although the diet has been adjusted due to the disease, the nutrients provided must be sufficient. The dietary intake should still be mainly based on the six major food groups. Choose as wide a variety of foods as possible to obtain various nutrients.

2. Provide food in small and frequent meals.

3. Relax and keep a happy mood when eating.

In daily life, we need to pay attention to the occurrence of these complications, and pay attention to reasonable conditioning to avoid gastric bleeding and affecting the gastric mucosa. We must actively receive treatment. I hope everyone will pay attention to conditioning methods in daily life, and pay attention to health care and effective diet to avoid causing more trouble.
