Gastritis and its causes

Gastritis is a condition in which the stomach’s lining becomes inflamed. The infection or germ that causes stomach ulcers causes the lining to become inflamed.

Gastritis can manifest itself in a variety of ways. It might manifest itself suddenly or gradually. Acute gastritis is a sudden outbreak of gastritis, while chronic gastritis is a progressive onset of gastritis. If it is consumed in excess, it can cause ulcers and raise the risk of stomach cancer.
