What are gastric diseases

What should you know about it?

Gastric diseases affect the stomach and digestive system. They can range from common issues like acidity and indigestion to more serious problems like ulcers, gastritis, acid reflux, and stomach infections. These conditions often interfere with daily life and can cause complications like stomach cancer, anemia, or even perforations.

common types of gastric diseases

What are the common types of gastric diseases?

Gastritis

Gastritis occurs when the stomach lining becomes inflamed. It may be caused by infections (like H. pylori), long-term use of certain medications, or excessive alcohol intake.

Peptic Ulcers

Peptic ulcers are sores that form on the inside of your stomach or the upper part of your small intestine. They often cause burning pain and, if not treated, can lead to bleeding.

Acid Reflux / GERD

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) causes stomach acid to flow back into the esophagus, leading to heartburn and discomfort. It can be chronic if not managed properly.

Indigestion (Dyspepsia)

A general term for stomach discomfort, bloating, or nausea after eating. It’s often flared up by overeating, stress, or certain foods.

Stomach Infections

Bacterial or viral infections can cause sudden stomach pain, vomiting, and diarrhea. Timely treatment is essential to avoid dehydration or complications.

diagnosis

How are gastric diseases diagnosed?

Gastric disease specialists begin by understanding your complete medical history and symptoms. Then, based on the severity and duration of your complaints, they may recommend the following tests:

Endoscopy (Upper GI Endoscopy)

A thin, flexible tube with a camera is inserted through the mouth to examine the lining of your esophagus, stomach, and the first part of your small intestine. This helps detect ulcers, inflammation, bleeding, or tumors.

Ultrasound / CT Scan

These imaging tests help identify problems like swelling, tumors, or structural issues in the stomach or surrounding organs.

Blood Tests

Used to check for signs of infection (like H. pylori), anemia due to blood loss, or inflammation markers.

Stool Test

Helpful in detecting hidden blood in the stool, which could point to ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding.

Urea Breath Test

This non-invasive test detects the presence of Helicobacter pylori, a common bacteria responsible for gastritis and ulcers.
