Introduction to gastritis
This condition results from the stomach lining getting inflamed, and is usually accompanied by indigestion and bleeding in the digestive tract.
Acute gastritis occurs when people are subject to a lot of sudden stress from injuries or burns. It can also happen after surgery and lead to stress ulcers and severe bleeding of the intestines.
It is important to remember that gastritis is not a disease. It’s symptom is abnormal indigestion.
This condition affects millions of people worldwide. Gastric juices are needed to digest food, but if the acid content in the stomach increases excessively, it can cause problems that lead to gastritis.
