Introduction
Chronic antral gastritis ++ is generally not severe, but there can be serious cases. If chronic antral gastritis ++ leads to gastric mucosal bleeding and results in black stools, the condition may be more serious, and patients should seek medical treatment promptly. In addition, during medication, patients can consume moderate amounts of fresh fruits and vegetables, but should avoid alcohol to prevent interference with drug absorption.
Chronic antral gastritis ++ is generally not serious, but there can be cases where the condition is severe. The specific analysis is as follows:
1. Not Serious
Chronic antral gastritis ++ is usually caused by poor dietary habits, such as frequently consuming spicy or irritating foods or long-term alcohol consumption, which commonly leads to mucosal damage. Regular use of antipyretic and analgesic medications, such as amoxicillin capsules or acetaminophen tablets, may also injure the gastric mucosa. Maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy or irritating foods can effectively alleviate symptoms. If necessary, medications such as domperidone tablets or omeprazole enteric-coated capsules may be taken orally under a doctor's guidance.
2. Severe
If chronic antral gastritis ++ causes gastric mucosal bleeding leading to black stools, the condition may be more serious, and patients should seek timely medical treatment.
In addition, during medication, patients can moderately consume fresh fruits and vegetables, and must avoid alcohol to prevent interference with drug absorption. If any discomfort occurs, immediate medical attention is recommended.
