❗️❗️❗️ GASTRITIS.
It is a common gastrointestinal disorder that affects people of all ages and extremely common in the Mauritian population.
Gastritis can be acute, occurring suddenly and lasting for a short duration, or it can be chronic, persisting over an extended period.
Diagnosis of gastritis typically involves a thorough medical history review, physical examination, and sometimes additional tests such as blood tests, stool tests, endoscopy, or imaging studies.
Treatment for gastritis aims to relieve symptoms, promote healing of the stomach lining, and address the underlying cause. It may involve lifestyle changes, such as avoiding triggers like certain foods or alcohol, and medications to reduce stomach acid or treat underlying infections.
While gastritis can be uncomfortable and disruptive to daily life, most cases can be effectively managed with appropriate medical care and lifestyle modifications.
