The study of the stomach is carried out with the help of the FGD, the most modern and capable of giving the best results, of the method. Doing it does not pose any problem for doctors, but it is rather unpleasant, although quite painless for the patient.
On its results and doctor's appointments a medical history is compiled, which is compulsory for all medical institutions. Thanks to her, it is easier to analyze the changes in the patient's condition with an erosive gastritis and to choose the most appropriate scheme for effective treatment.
How is the treatment of erosive gastritis of the stomach?
After all the causes of the disease are identified and the correct diagnosis is made, the gastroenterologist on these data, recorded in the medical history, will make all the appointments.

In addition to them, much attention is paid to the organization of a correct and balanced diet, appropriate diet, which is a key point in the scheme of prescriptions for gastrointestinal gastritis, and exercise physiotherapy exercises.
The diet is prescribed because the stomach with erosion is not able to work in normal mode. Heavy, fatty, salty foods will cause additional irritation, so all patients with this disease are assigned a special table.
Its basis is light soups, vegetables, steamed, porridge. Fermented milk products are allowed only those in which the acid content is low enough. The main sources of protein for the body for the entire diet should be low-fat fish and dietary meat, also steamed.
If the erosive gastritis has a chronic form of flow, then after discharge from the hospital, in order to prevent relapses, it is necessary to adhere to such a diet. In addition, it is necessary to exclude all pickles and marinades, since they cause the strongest irritation in the gastric mucosa and are an obstacle to successful treatment.

Is erosive gastritis completely cured?
In medicine, there are cases of complete cure of this disease, but only in acute form, which is detected on time. But the insidiousness of erosive gastritis is that often its symptoms are "lubricated" before the transition to a chronic stage, from which only one step to an ulcer.
In chronic forms of gastritis with erosions, treatment is very long and should be done under close supervision of a specialist. After all, even when erosion has completely healed, the body takes a very long time to restore the mucosa of all its functions that were lost as a result of the disease.
It is also required that the diet be maintained on a regular basis in order to avoid irritation of the mucosa, not heavy sports such as running, walking, cycling and swimming.
This can achieve long and sustained periods of remission. Do not forget that after the treatment of erosive gastritis in the medical institution will be required to take preventive measures to prevent relapse.
