After performing an emergency endoscopy on the patient, the situation was quite dire.
The patient's entire gastric mucosa appeared pale, indicating the presence of gastritis, and the condition was very severe.
This situation arises when there is erosion, ulcers, or inflammatory edema exudation on the gastric mucosa surface.
No wonder the patient's physique appeared emaciated; the patient's father mentioned that the child spends all day playing games, hanging out, and hardly eats at home. With such severe gastritis, symptoms like nausea, vomiting, indigestion, acid reflux, and heartburn are inevitable.
In such a situation, how could the patient possibly ingest food?
However, the formation of gastritis is often due to irregular eating habits. Skipping meals, overindulging, drinking on an empty stomach, or eating spicy and barbecued food, among other things.
In general, gastritis is mostly self-inflicted.
People don't cherish their health until it's too late.
