Hyperplastic gastritis is called gastric mucosa, in which the latter grows. This is a benign disease. It can be localized only in a certain part of the body, and with insufficient attention extends to the entire area of the stomach.
Causes and symptoms of focal hyperplastic gastritis
The big problem is that until now the causes of the appearance of the disease remain unclarified, and its symptoms are not always clearly manifested. Presumably, the following factors are considered as having factors for the disease:
- hypovitaminosis;
- a food allergy;
- improperly formulated diet or improper diet;
- hereditary predisposition;
- alcohol or nicotine dependence;
- work in adverse conditions.
The most common symptoms of chronic hyperplastic gastritis are usually the following:
- discomfort or epigastric pain;
- unstable stools;
- smack of friable tart in the mouth;
- attacks of nausea with vomiting;
- sharp weight loss;
- increased salivation;
- sudden temperature rises;
- eructation ;
- flatulence.
Precisely because the signs of atrophic hyperplastic gastritis do not always manifest, the prognosis of the disease is unfavorable. The most dangerous thing is the formation of polyps . They can reach impressive sizes and block the connection with the intestine organs, for example. As a result, intestinal obstruction begins, severe pains appear.
Treatment of atrophic hyperplastic gastritis
Therapy is symptomatic. And accordingly, for each patient, she is selected individually:
- If acidity is increased, patients prescribe antisecretory drugs that suppress the release of hydrochloric acid.
- If atrophy is detected, it is advisable to prescribe a substitution therapy that presupposes the intake of natural gastric juice.
- If there is erosion, the patient will have to adhere to a strict diet and eat foods rich in vitamins and proteins.
- Surgical removal is required only if polyps are found.
In fact, with antral atrophic hyperplastic gastritis, diet should be adhered to all, regardless of the course of the disease. Patients can not drink alcohol, eat fatty meat and fish, get addicted to spices, chocolate, coffee fresh buns.
