By way of definition, we have to first understand that Gastritis as a condition is the erosion, swelling/inflammation or irritation of the abdominal linings. However, this can be sudden or gradual. And when the process is sudden it is referred to as acute gastritis but when it is gradual it is known as chronic gastritis! Nevertheless, the truth is that the human digestive tract is sheltered by the mucosal lining in the stomach from the destructive activities of abdominal acid, foreign bodies and microbes generally referred to as antigens. So, in actual sense, the mucosal lining performs like an obstruction between the antigen and the digestive tract. But if this obstruction is disturbed or messed up for some reasons, the mucosal lining becomes swollen or inflamed, the effect of this is gastritis. That being as it may, some common symptoms typically experienced by the sufferer includes: vomiting, abdominal pain, nausea, distressing or burning sensation in the abdomen or stomach, which happens at nights or in between meals, indigestion, loss of appetite, indigestion, etc. Risk or Predisposing Factors: - -The most common cause of this medical condition is Helicobacter pylori bacterial infection. -Another predisposing factor is excessive consumption of alcohol. -Anxiety brought on by undergoing major surgery, burns or infections can also predisposing people to this medical condition. -Consistent usage of pain killers like aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin IB Advil, ) and naproxene (Anaprox Aleve). -Aging - As one age, the abdominal lining is likely to thin out, the reason being that older people are prone to autoimmune disorders or H. pylori infection compared with younger adults.
