We will tell you which gastrointestinal diseases are the most common and often turn into chronic.

Gastroenterological diseases
Gastroenterology from ancient Greek means the science of the stomach and intestines. This department of medicine studies the structure, diseases and treatment methods of the digestive tract. What gastroenterological diseases are most common today:
- peptic ulcer;
- gastritis;
- pancreatitis;
- cholecystitis;
- cholelithiasis;
- biliary colic
In this article, we will talk about diseases such as peptic ulcer and gastritis.
Peptic ulcer
Peptic ulcers form in the bulb of the stomach and duodenum (less often in the lower part of the esophagus or the loop of the duodenum).
Symptoms that accompany peptic ulcer manifest:
- pain, discomfort in the epigastrium – usually 1-3 hours after a meal; may be observed early in the morning or at night;
- heartburn, belching;
- decrease in body weight;
- systematic manifestations of nausea and vomiting.
Helicobacter pylori infection may be the root cause of peptic ulcer, but an interesting fact is that 90% of infected carriers of this bacterium do not show symptoms of the disease. Perhaps a combination of several factors and infection leads to peptic ulcer.
The next reason may be the long-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). That is why it is very important that the drugs are prescribed by a doctor who takes into account the patient’s history.
Improper nutrition, the presence of chronic diseases such as gastritis and pancreatitis also lead to peptic ulcer. Often, the disease occurs due to a genetic predisposition, stress, drinking, and smoking.
Chronic course of peptic ulcer
Acute peptic ulcer disease develops into a chronic one. For some time, the ulcers are scarred and do not bother, but often there is an exacerbation, which occurs mainly in autumn and spring.
Peptic ulcer treatment
In our pharmacy you can order cheap medicines for peptic ulcer online. The most common treatment for gastric ulcer is to take antisecretory substances to suppress the secretion of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. With medical treatment, the dosage must be selected, since a violation of the individual dose can lead to other diseases. In addition to treatment, vitamins B5 and U can be prescribed. It is also important to follow a diet, rejection of alcohol and nicotine.
Gastritis
The most common disease in Mexico and the United States. Under this disease, doctors can mean several conditions: inflammatory-dystrophic changes in the gastric mucosa, atrophy of epithelial cells and the replacement of normal glands with fibrous tissue.
Gastritis is of several varieties: acute and chronic. Acute is detected primarily and develops as a result of:
- chemical irritants entering the stomach;
- poor quality food;
- after taking certain medications;
- when drinking alcohol;
- with acute infections;
- metabolic disorders.
Chronic gastritis can be of several varieties: autoimmune, bacterial, reflux gastritis, eosinophilic, lymphocytic, granulomatous, radiation. In most cases (up to 90%), chronic gastritis develops due to Helicobacter pylori.
Other causes of chronic gastritis:
- malnutrition, poor food quality, alcohol and nicotine;
- long-term use of NSAIDs;
- helminthiasis;
- constant stress
Other causes of chronic gastritis include a genetic predisposition, autoimmune processes that damage stomach cells, metabolic disorders, duodenogastric reflux, endocrinology diseases, and a lack of vitamins.
Symptoms of acute and chronic gastritis
Symptoms of acute gastritis are manifested by sharp pain in the stomach, nausea, vomiting, weakness and dizziness. After a while, diarrhea appears.
Chronic gastritis also manifests itself during the off-season: in spring and autumn. Symptoms of chronic gastritis:
- a feeling of pain or discomfort in the epigastric region;
- nausea;
- bad taste in the mouth;
- heartburn;
- constipation, diarrhea;
Symptoms of the gastrointestinal tract may include disorders of the cardiovascular system, weakness, irritability, sweating, drowsiness, chronic fatigue, etc.
Treatment of acute gastritis
Rinse the stomach with warm water using a probe to remove chemicals from the stomach. Further, during the day, the patient takes only water or water, alternating with tea. Then a diet is observed that does not irritate the mucous membranes: soups, liquid cereals, jelly, boiled eggs.
Of the drugs, enterosorbents and antispasmodics are used to eliminate pain. In the presence of infection, antibiotics are prescribed. If an attack of acute gastritis was accompanied by vomiting, then it is necessary to restore the water-electrolyte balance.
Treatment of chronic gastritis
Treatment of chronic gastritis should be carried out on an outpatient basis for a minimum of 2 weeks. During this time, the doctor may prescribe the following groups of drugs:
- Antacids (neutralize hydrochloric acid)
- Inhibitors of the proton pump (reduce the production of hydrochloric acid)
- Selective M-anticholinergics
- P2 histamine receptor blockers
- Prokinetics
- Anthelmintic drugs (if helminths are detected)
- Vitamins U and B5 (as adjunctive therapy)
In the event that the cause of the disease is Helicobacter pylori, it is destroyed.
