Gastritis is a general term for a group of conditions with one thing in common: inflammation

of the lining of the stomach.

The inflammation of gastritis is most often the result of infection with the same bacterium

that causes most stomach ulcers.

Regular use of certain pain relievers and drinking too much alcohol also can contribute

to gastritis.

Gastritis may occur suddenly (acute gastritis), or appear slowly over time (chronic gastritis).

In some cases, gastritis can lead to ulcers and an increased risk of stomach cancer.

For most people, however, gastritis isn't serious and improves quickly with treatment.

The signs and symptoms of gastritis include:

Gnawing or burning ache or pain (indigestion) in your upper abdomen that may become either

worse or better with eating, Nausea, Vomiting and A feeling of fullness in your upper abdomen

after eating.

Gastritis doesn't always cause signs and symptoms.

What Causes Gastritis?

Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach lining.

Weaknesses or injury to the mucus-lined barrier that protects your stomach wall allows your

digestive juices to damage and inflame your stomach lining.

A number of diseases and conditions can increase your risk of gastritis, including Crohn's

disease and sarcoidosis, a condition in which collections of inflammatory cells grow in

the body.

Factors that increase your risk of gastritis include:

#1.

Bacterial infection.

Although infection with Helicobacter pylori is among the most common worldwide human infections,

only some people with the infection develop gastritis or other upper gastrointestinal

disorders.

Doctors believe vulnerability to the bacterium could be inherited or could be caused by lifestyle

choices, such as smoking and diet.

#2.

Regular use of pain relievers.

Common pain relievers — such as aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) and naproxen

(Aleve, Anaprox) — can cause both acute gastritis and chronic gastritis.

Using these pain relievers regularly or taking too much of these drugs may reduce a key substance

that helps preserve the protective lining of your stomach.

#3.

Older age.

Older adults have an increased risk of gastritis because the stomach lining tends to thin with

age and because older adults are more likely to have H. pylori infection or autoimmune

disorders than younger people are.

#4.

Excessive alcohol use.

Alcohol can irritate and erode your stomach lining, which makes your stomach more vulnerable

to digestive juices.

Excessive alcohol use is more likely to cause acute gastritis.

#5.

Stress.

Severe stress due to major surgery, injury, burns or severe infections can cause acute

gastritis.

#6.

Your own body attacking cells in your stomach.

Called autoimmune gastritis, this type of gastritis occurs when your body attacks the

cells that make up your stomach lining.

This reaction can wear away at your stomach's protective barrier.

Autoimmune gastritis is more common in people with other autoimmune disorders, including

Hashimoto's disease and type 1 diabetes.

Autoimmune gastritis can also be associated with vitamin B-12 deficiency.

Other diseases and conditions.

Gastritis may be associated with other medical conditions, including HIV/AIDS, Crohn's disease

and parasitic infections.
