What Is Chronic Gastritis?

Chronic gastritis, like gastritis in general, is an inflammatory disease of the gastric mucosa. With weakened protection of the stomach, caustic acids damage its walls. The development of gastritis is accompanied by many factors, ranging from poor ecology to a state of stress. Gastritis can be called chronic when the inflammation of the stomach along with the symptoms regularly return and persist for a long time. This type of gastritis (chronic) is also accompanied by a noticeable decrease in immunity.

Treatment delayed for many months, or even years can be avoided if the acute form of the disease is caught, diagnosed, and treated in time. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to consult a specialist at the first signs.
