Will stomach erosion become cancer after 4 months?

Gastric erosion is less likely to turn into cancer after four months.

Gastric erosion, usually referred to as superficial damage to the gastric mucosa, is most often caused by hyperacidity, Helicobacter pylori infection, or other factors, and is not directly equivalent to gastric ulcer. At this time, patients can improve symptoms by taking drugs such as omeprazole, lansoprazole, rabeprazole, and regular diet, and usually do not turn into cancer after four months.

However, it should be noted that although gastric erosion itself does not directly cause cancer, long-standing gastric mucosal damage, especially with Helicobacter pylori infection, may increase the risk of gastric cancer.
