Questions about chronic gastritis

  1.What is the problem of atrophic gastritis? Can it become cancerous?  Yes, chronic atrophic gastritis with moderate intestinal epithelial metaplasia should indeed be observed as a pre-cancerous lesion. As far as the pharmaceutical industry is concerned, there is really no specific western medicine for this disease, which leaves a lot of room for the development of Chinese medicine for this disease. The only recognized Chinese medicine for this disease on the market is Gastric Fuchun, but because the composition, dosage, and combination of the medicine are fixed, it cannot solve the pain of all types of patients, only the soup can be customized, according to the patient’s different constitution, different types of evidence, different changes in the symptoms and the degree of severity to prescribe the right medicine, although the patient needs to be followed up every 1-2 weeks. Follow up, but it can facilitate observation, timely adjustment of prescription, the efficacy is also more significant.  2.Is there any special medicine for atrophic gastritis? Are all gastric diseases related to stomach acid?  I don’t think it’s very reliable with the information available. The modern medical research proves that all peptic ulcers are related to excessive gastric acid, and the theory of the 1950s continues to this day, the so-called “no acid, no ulcer” is not unreasonable, while severe atrophic gastritis, severe intestinal epithelial hyperplasia, severe atypical hyperplasia as one of the pre-cancerous lesions, is a key point of difficulty in the medical field, are related to low gastric acid secretion, gastric mucosa The author does not believe that there is a so-called natural and smooth reversal of the special medicine.   3.I feel pain in my stomach when I take cold medicine, can I take cold medicine for stomach problems?  Yes, there are such cases. Because the western medicine in cold medicine have certain side effects, especially its gastrointestinal reaction is more prominent, often causing nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, acidity and other reactions; Chinese medicine to dispel wind and cold medicine is more spicy, and the medicine to clear heat and detoxification are cold, there is a certain stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract, so once the cold need to seek help from a specialist as soon as possible, so that doctors use the appropriate cold medicine for the condition at their discretion.  4, atrophic gastritis is not adhering to fresh ingredients food therapy will be reduced? Is it effective to take health products such as American ginseng?  It may be effective, but there are definitely side effects when taken for a long time. The ginseng can replenish the qi and nourish the yin, clear the fire and produce fluid, but long taking too much qi and too much yin will have side effects; white fungus and dendrobium are also based on nourishing the yin, but they are only suitable for patients with stomach yin deficiency; shiitake mushrooms have the effect of anti-cancer and moving qi, but there are also reports of allergies; reishi is reported to have anti-cancer effects, but it is also known for clearing heat and detoxifying the stomach, and long taking must damage the spleen. In short, the same atrophic gastritis, its clinical manifestations and the identification of different types, never a single heat to nourish the yin, otherwise it is bound to be counterproductive.  The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of the most popular and most popular items.  The fennel porridge should also be combined with the different constitution of each patient, not a generalization. If consumed, it is not advisable to overdo it, just put 3-8 grams in the porridge when boiling. The fennel is pungent and warm, can dispel cold and relieve pain, regulate qi and stomach, and is most suitable for patients with atrophic gastritis of the type of deficiency cold and stagnation, such patients are often clinically cold, loose stools, stomach pain relieved by heat and other symptoms.  6, since atrophic gastritis to cause cancer, is not the turtle can prevent cancer?  Not really.   7, why will also have atrophic gastritis acidity?  I think chronic atrophic gastritis lack of gastric acid does not necessarily not secrete gastric acid, so when the gastric power is insufficient or gastroesophageal reflux (also equivalent to Chinese medicine, when the stomach is out of harmony and descending), of course, there will be panic acid; not to mention that chronic atrophic gastric glands are not located in every stomach wall cells. It is still permissible to take yogurt and vinegar in moderation, but often or in excess, it is not very suitable, especially when the acidity is intense, or in moderation.  8.Is it necessary to have a gastroscopy for atrophic gastritis? How often is it done?  It is necessary because chronic atrophic gastritis is a major problem in modern medicine and is one of the pre-cancerous lesions. Reviewing the gastroscopy in 3-6 months will help the doctor to observe the development of the disease and adjust the treatment plan, which is beneficial to both people and themselves. At present, there is still no better examination means to replace gastroscopy, because gastroscopy can not only look directly at the whole stomach mucosa and not let any lesion go, but also can combine the knowledge of gastrointestinal endoscopy to determine the degree of atrophy; judge the size, activity, texture, edge and surface condition of the lesion; timely gastroscopic pathological examination can help to identify the benign and malignant degree of the lesion, which is irreplaceable by means of gastric electrogram, barium meal and B ultrasound.
