Moderate chronic superficial gastritis may cause dizziness and nausea and insomnia.
Chronic superficial gastritis is a type of chronic gastritis, which occurs when chronic inflammatory cell infiltration, mainly lymphocytes and plasma cells, occurs, and when the depth of infiltration is moderate, it is called moderate chronic superficial gastritis. This disease manifests itself in the form of discomfort, dull ache and burning pain in the upper and middle abdomen, and may also be characterized by lack of appetite, belching, nausea and other symptoms of dyspepsia. Painful disturbances can cause insomnia.
In the ileum, the gastric body lining cells secrete endofactor, which binds to vitamin B12 to form a complex. When autoantibodies against endofactors are present, autoimmune inflammation reduces endofactors, leading to malabsorption of vitamin B12 and megaloblastic anemia, which can be manifested as weakness, anorexia, and anemia, and the anemia can cause dizziness.
If moderate chronic superficial gastritis is diagnosed, early and standardized treatment is recommended to reduce the adverse effects of the disease.
