Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach lining that is usually caused by infection with Helicobacter pylori bacteria or long-term use of NSAIDs. It can occur suddenly or gradually. Symptoms include abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Risk factors include H. pylori infection, alcoholism, smoking, older age, and inflammatory bowel disease. Diagnosis involves tests like an upper endoscopy, blood tests, and stool tests. Treatment focuses on eliminating the underlying cause, increasing fluid intake, avoiding irritants, and using medication if needed.

3. About Gastritis
Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach
lining. Many things can cause gastritis. Most
often the cause is infection with the same
bacteria -- helicobacter pylori -- that
causes stomach ulcers. An autoimmune
disorder, a backup of bile into the stomach,
or long term use of nonsteroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (nsaids), such as
ibuprofen, can also cause gastritis.

4. In some cases, the stomach lining may
be "eaten away," leading to sores
(peptic ulcers) in the stomach or first
part of the small intestine. Gastritis can
occur suddenly (acute gastritis) or
gradually (chronic gastritis). In most
cases, gastritis does not permanently
damage the stomach lining.
