astritis is more common with age and most sufferers complain of indigestion. Other people have no noticeable symptoms, which can be dangerous if gastritis is caused by erosion of the stomach lining with bleeding-normally a result of aspirin or other medication. Usually, people with acute gastritis caused by illness or injury have already been hospitalized for treatment of their underlying condition; therefore, symptoms of gastritis are managed in the course of their intensive care.
One type of gastritis is more specifically known as erosive gastritis. This is where the stomach isn’t just inflamed, but is being worn away. The stomach lining can be eroded by a variety of irritants, including aspirin. Crohn’s disease can wear the stomach lining away, too. Typically, a person with erosive gastritis doesn’t know he has it at first, because it generally develops very slowly over time. Often, the person is otherwise quite healthy and shows no symptoms until finally the erosive gastritis becomes severe enough to be noticeable.
Some gastritis sufferers suffer additional symptoms brought about by stomach bleeding. Gastritis is rarely severe enough to cause stomach bleeding, but it happens occasionally if the stomach lining has been penetrated. A bleeding stomach can cause you to vomit blood or to have black, tarry stools. If you have either of these symptoms, you should see a doctor immediately.

Gastritis is what happens when something causes your stomach lining to be compromised, allowing the caustic acids to damage the stomach. A lot of different things can cause this to happen. Taking aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen -- that’s Motrin, Advil, Aleve, and others -- on a regular basis can lead to gastritis. These drugs, while helpful for pain relief symptoms, have the unfortunate side effects of tearing down the stomach lining slightly. A couple tablets now and then won’t produce any long-lasting harm, but taking them regularly can easily cause stomach ulcers as well as gastritis.
The doctor simply takes an endoscope -- which is a very skinny tube with a miniature camera affixed to it -- inserts it down your throat and into your stomach. A monitor similar to a TV will show what the camera is seeing down there, and the doctor will investigate the condition of the stomach lining to see whether it has been damaged. It’s not particularly comfortable to have a tube down your throat, but it’s not painful or traumatic for most patients and they numb your throat first. The doctor might also take a small piece of tissue from your stomach lining to run tests on it, a process known as a biopsy.
Acid reflux medicine usually involves products that neutralize the acid in your stomach using antacids as their basic approach. That approach is targeting the treat symptoms instead of curing the patient. In fact by just neutralizing your stomach acids the body releases a hormone called Gastrin to regulate the lowered hydrochloric acid in the stomach by activating the production of even more stomach acid. That means that taking acid reflux medicine is only a temporary relief and rather than a solution it provides even a bigger acid reflux problem to cure.
