Gastritis is due to the inflammation of the lining of the stomach. The Stomach Lining called the gastric mucosa, is the inner lining of the stomach that comes into contact with food or digestive acids. It is made up of several layers of epithelial cells that secrete mucus and other protective substances.
The mucus helps protect the stomach lining from being eroded by the strong stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) used for digestion. Gastritis occurs when causing any irritation to the protective lining of the stomach due to various causes.
It can occur suddenly (acute gastritis) or gradually over time (chronic gastritis). The inflammation causes symptoms such as burning abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, bloating, and loss of appetite.
There are several potential causes of gastritis. Acute gastritis is often triggered by dietary indiscretions like drinking too much alcohol, eating spicy or irritating foods, or taking certain medications like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Chronic gastritis is commonly caused by infection with the Helicobacter pylori bacteria or autoimmune disorders. Other risk factors include smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, stress, and vitamin deficiencies.
Homeopathy treatment for gastritis is very effective in curing the inflammatory changes in gastric mucosa. Homeopathy medicines for gastritis help to bring back the stomach lining to a completely healthy state.
Left untreated, chronic gastritis can lead to serious complications like stomach ulcers, internal bleeding, and even stomach cancer in some cases. That’s why it’s important to properly diagnose and treat the underlying causes. While acute gastritis often resolves on its own with self-care, chronic gastritis requires medical intervention.
 Lifestyle changes like dietary modifications, quitting smoking, and managing stress are very important during the homeopathy treatment for gastritis.
By understanding the causes and getting homeopathy treatment, most cases of gastritis can be cured and reduce the risks of long-term stomach damage.
Causes for gastritis
👉 Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection.
This bacterial infection is a leading cause of chronic gastritis
H. pylori can damage the stomach lining and increase acid production
👉Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
Medications like ibuprofen, naproxen, and aspirin can irritate and inflame the gastric lining
Risk increases with long-term, high-dose NSAID use
👉Excessive alcohol consumption
Alcohol can directly irritate the stomach lining and make it more vulnerable to acid damage
👉Bile reflux
Backup of bile (digestive fluid) from the small intestine into the stomach can cause gastritis
👉Autoimmune disorders
In some cases, the body’s immune system may mistakenly attack stomach lining cells
👉Other infections
Viral infections like CMV or fungal overgrowth can sometimes trigger gastritis
👉Stress
Severe, prolonged stress may lead to increased stomach acid and inflammation
👉Diet and lifestyle factors
Smoking, nutritional deficiencies, eating spicy/acidic foods in excess.
