Chronic superficial atrophic gastritis


Building bridges to better health.
Chronic superficial atrophic gastritis usually refers to atrophic gastritis, which may be caused by drug side effects, infection with Helicobacter pylori, digestive juice reflux, etc.
1. Drug side effects: Patients take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for long-term treatment of diseases, such as ibuprofen, celecoxib, aspirin, etc., which may induce atrophic gastritis due to drug damage to gastric mucosa.
2. Infection with Helicobacter pylori: Patients with gastric infection with Helicobacter pylori cause inflammation in gastric mucosa, which may cause atrophic gastritis due to chronic inflammation stimulation.
3. Digestive juice reflux: If the patient's sphincter dysfunction causes bile, pancreatic juice and other digestive juices to reflux to the stomach, resulting in gastric tissue damage, atrophic gastritis may occur.
