Patients with antral gastritis accompanied by bile reflux often experience a burning sensation in the stomach, and may also have symptoms such as belching, acid regurgitation, and upper abdominal pain.

1. Burning sensation in the stomach

In patients with antral gastritis and bile reflux, bile flowing back into the stomach usually irritates the gastric lining, causing a burning sensation.

2. Belching and acid regurgitation

Due to bile reflux, patients with antral gastritis often suffer from impaired normal digestion and absorption in the stomach, leading to indigestion, which results in symptoms such as belching and acid regurgitation.

3. Upper abdominal pain

Bile reflux in antral gastritis can damage the gastric mucosa, causing congestion and swelling of the mucosal tissue. As a result, patients commonly feel upper abdominal pain, which tends to worsen after meals, especially following a heavy meal.

Patients with antral gastritis and bile reflux are advised to actively cooperate with their doctors for standardized treatment. During treatment, they should avoid consuming raw, cold, greasy, spicy, or other irritating foods to prevent worsening of the condition.
