About Gastritis?
Inflammation of stomach lining named mucosa is termed as Gastritis. Inflammation of mucosa is mainly caused due to excess gastric acid production by gastric glands. This overproduction of acids irritates the lining and leads to erosion of stomach lining and pain. Gastritis pain can strike suddenly or gradually over time. The sudden outset of gastritis is termed as acute gastritis and when it occurs slowly, then it is termed as chronic gastritis.
Types of Gastritis
Gastritis based on the severity of the condition is broadly classified into types, namely
Erosive Gastritis- This is a type where excess gastric acids erode and lead to multiple lesions in the stomach lining. This erosion leads to severe pain and is comparatively less common.
