My 9yr old daughter is suffering from acute gastritis. Which was identified in an ultrasound test while feeling abdominal pain. The ultrasound report has an impression as described below: "Mildly tender epigastrium, prominent gastric mucosal fold, mild colonic air ditension." Kindly advise... ## Gastritis is caused by an inflammation of the stomach lining, unlike an ulcer, this usually involves very large areas of the stomach and the pain involved can be quite severe. What have the doctors advised? Usually, some type of medication for pain must be given for a short period of time, while some type of antacid is given for about 12 weeks, to help the stomach to heal.

After the Endoscopy, my doctor said that I have mild gastritis and gave Raberparzole plus domerpride capsules for 10 days but my family doctor prescribed me Pylokit for 7 days... What to do ??? ## If you don't have h. pylori, then the Pylokit isn't necessary, because it is used to eradicate that bacteria. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Rabeprazole and Domperidone as possibly including nausea, dizziness, stomach pain, and diarrhea. Have you double checked with your doctor to be sure which medications you should be taking? ## Hi. I went for endoscopy and I was diagnosed with Helico Bacter Pylori. my doctor prescribed I take pylo kit. I have been taking and the first five days everything was normal but now I feel stomach pains.

I went see my primary doctor for low back pain and gave me meloxicam 15mg to take once a day with food. Will it be safe to take? ## Hello, Vic! How are you? If you have chronic gastritis, you shouldn't take any nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, such as the Meloxicam. They can be very harsh on the stomach and can cause gastritis, or gastritis flare ups as side effects. Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and increased risk of bleeding. Is there anything else I can help with? ## tyvm, i'll call my doctor to see if he can prescribe something that's not NSAID, tylenol alone doesn't seem to help very much.

Hi, I was diagnosed to have an acute gastritis last 2010 and still having the symptoms last month. Now, I have severe cold and I have been taking bio flu for 2 days. My concern is, is it okay for me to take bioflu? because yesterday i started to feel the pain in the upper part of my abdomen. Now, I'm planning change bioflu to biogesic (I'm from Philippines). ## Hi Jeenzey, You mentioned having a "severe" cold, too much coughing might cause discomfort or pain in the abdominal muscle. Biogesic is safe and given for fever and mild pain. It could be taken with or without food. I suggest you eat frequently or small frequent meal if you have history of acute gastritis.

I have gastritis but no h pylori. Is it okay to use Pylori kit even if you do not have H Pylori? ## It is really not recommended, because the H. Pylori kits contains antibiotics to help get rid of the H. Pylori bacteria, so if you use them, without having an active infection, then you run the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria and this could put you at serious risk in the future. It is usually best to treat gastritis with medications that specifically help to reduce the amount of acid in the stomach and allow it to heal. The most commonly used are proton pump inhibitors, you can learn more about them here: They work by shutting down some of the acid pumps in the stomach, so you produce less acid. Personally, I didn't have good luck with these and my doctor had to take ...

COLITIS. GASTRITIS. DOLOR INTENSO EN LA BOCA DEL ESTÓMAGO. ## B-Tracet-Ex está en la lista que contenía Ketorlac, tramadol y vitaminas B1 y B12. ¿Está diciendo que causó estos problemas, o si desea utilizar para el tratamiento de estos problemas? El ketorolaco en este es un antiinflamatorios no esteroideos y, como tal, puede causar irritación del estómago, debido a un aumento en el ácido del estómago. Por lo tanto, si alguien está sufriendo de gastritis, se debe evitar este medicamento. Otros efectos secundarios pueden incluir: náusea, dolor de cabeza y mareos.
