Erosion is damage to the mucous membrane that does not affect the muscle membrane, that is, it is superficial damage. If the muscle membrane is defective, an ulcer forms. Erosion is not an independent disease, but a manifestation of one of the types of gastritis - erosive, i.e. erosions are minor superficial damage to the inflamed gastric mucosa.

Stress, infectious diseases, poor nutrition cannot pass without leaving a trace. Defects in the gastric mucosa occur, which over time turn into erosions. Essentially, these are small (from 0.3 to 1.5 mm in diameter) wounds. They do not damage the muscular part of the organ as is the case with an ulcer. Erosion can occur in various parts of the stomach. They usually have a round or oval shape.

I would like to say a few words about such a disease as gastric erosion. First of all, it should be noted that it is similar to peptic ulcer disease. If we consider the exact translation of the word from Latin language, it means “corrosion”. That’s right, erosion actually injures the walls of the stomach, creating one or more focal damage.

Reasons for education

The main causes of erosive gastritis:

1. Helicobacter pylori infection;
2. increased secretion of hydrochloric acid in gastric juice;
3. unbalanced diet, eating rough, spicy food;
4. frequent intake of large doses of alcohol;
5. smoking;
6. stress;
7. other diseases of the gastrointestinal tract (pancreatitis, cholecystitis, intestinal obstruction);
8. taking certain medications (NSAIDs, glucocorticoids);
9. diseases of the cardiovascular system;
10. congestion in the portal vein with cirrhosis of the liver;
11. hiatal hernia;
12. kidney and liver diseases in terminal stages.

Damage to the gastric mucosa occurs when there is an imbalance of damaging and protective factors (protective mucous barrier, active restoration of the epithelium, blood supply). Factors of aggression include pepsin, hydrochloric acid, and bile acids during the reflux of bile into the stomach. The mucous membrane is able to resist them for a long time, but as soon as its protective properties are reduced, erosion forms, and then, possibly, an ulcer.

For successful treatment of erosion, it is very important to find out the causes of the disease and eliminate them.

• Long-term use of medications (painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs), some heart medications can provoke the disease.
• Hot tea and coffee drinkers are at risk of stomach erosion.
• It is advisable to take food warm. Hot dishes will irritate the mucous membranes even more.
• Cold foods are also prohibited.
• Regular alcohol abuse and smoking are among the main factors of the disease.
• Diseases that increase blood pressure in the vessels, leading to impaired blood supply (liver disease, diabetes) contribute to the occurrence of gastric erosion.
• Constant exposure to toxic toxic substances on the body can corrode the tissues of some internal organs.
• Stress can also harm the stomach, becoming one of the factors of the disease.

Stomach erosion is an area of ​​the mucous membrane of the digestive organ that has been destroyed.

Erosion occurs when protective forces mucous tissues lining the organ inside are not able to cope with the aggressive effects on them:

• too hot food;
• food that is too cold;
• fatty and spicy foods;
• alcohol and nicotine;
• salts of heavy metals;
• alkalis and corrosive substances;
• medications.

Also, gastric erosion can occur due to:

• stomach injury;
• surgical intervention;
• psychoemotional disorders;
• chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

You can’t solve the problem exclusively with folk remedies, but you can get rid of some unpleasant symptoms- Maybe.

Unfortunately, medicine cannot give a definite answer to the question of why gastric erosions still occur, the treatment of which takes so much time. Most scientists agree that, due to certain factors, oxygen starvation may occur in the digestive system. As a result, problems begin in some parts of the stomach.

• Not proper nutrition– spicy, hot or too difficult to digest foods;
• taking medications that negatively affect the functioning of the stomach (for example, Aspirin);
• smoking;
• diabetes;
• pancreatitis, renal failure;
• chronic diseases of the respiratory system;
• stress, constant nervous tension;
• consumption of alcohol and carbonated drinks, strong tea;
• infectious diseases;
• food poisoning.

The theory about the negative impact of Helicobacter pylori microorganisms is gaining increasing recognition. Although this scientific idea has not yet been fully proven, the results of the study confirmed the fact that 90% of patients who exhibit gastric erosion (treatment with folk remedies did not help them) are carriers of this bacterium.

Types of erosion

Not all gastric wounds are the same in size, type, causes of occurrence and duration of existence. That is why, in accordance with certain criteria, gastric erosions are classified. Their treatment largely depends on the identification of the species. According to V. Vodolagin’s division system, there are:

1. Primary erosion - the stomach is affected, less often also duodenum.
2. Secondary – patients also have problems with the liver, biliary and cardiovascular systems.
3. Malignant erosion - wounds in the stomach accompany oncological formations and Crohn's disease.

Depending on the duration of the disease, there are:

• acute erosion;
• chronic.

The first is characterized by its multiplicity, has a round or oval shape and is located, as a rule, at the bottom of the organ. Its dimensions are quite small - from 0.2 to 0.4 mm. For approximately 10 days, in the worst case – 8 weeks, this erosion of the stomach exists. Treatment with folk remedies helps to get rid of it in a short time.

Symptoms

The most common symptoms of erosive gastritis:

• pain in the epigastrium (if the damage is localized in the upper parts of the stomach, pain appears 15-30 minutes after eating, in the lower parts (pyloric part) - after 1.5-2 hours;
• heaviness in the abdomen in the epigastric region after eating;
• nausea;
• vomit;
• in severe cases - discharge of blood with feces (“melena” - the feces become black) or vomit;
• tendency to constipation or loose stools;
• Possible eosinophilia (increased number of eosinophils in the blood) - indicates an allergic mood of the body.

When the mucous membrane is damaged, food absorption is impaired, blood loss occurs with slightly bleeding ulcers, so the symptoms of the disease can be associated not only with the gastrointestinal tract, but also with anemia. Hair loss and brittleness, brittle nails, pallor, bleeding gums - all this can also be a consequence of erosive gastritis.

The disease progresses in different ways, so the symptoms are ambiguous and very similar to the symptoms of gastritis or ulcers. Regular heartburn, accompanied by pain and heaviness in the stomach, should alert you. Many in this case take antispasmodics and try to forget about the problem, in fact only aggravating it. In acute gastric erosion, the pain literally twists the person.

The appearance of belching, heartburn, stomach pain after eating and at night indicate erosion of the stomach. Streaks of blood in the stool and constant vomiting of blood indicate a serious chronic stage of the disease. The treatment of gastric erosion must be taken seriously in order to avoid even more dangerous diseases.

Erosion of the stomach does not manifest itself in any special, “original” way. Its symptoms can easily be confused with those of other diseases of the stomach or digestive system, such as ulcers.

On initial stage The disease is characterized by the following symptoms:

• painful sensations in the stomach area after eating;
• belching;
• nausea;
• "hungry" cramps;
• heartburn;
• vomiting, which makes you feel better.

Treatment in such cases quickly brings results and leads to complete healing of the mucous tissues. However, as the disease progresses, its symptoms become more serious and dangerous:

• internal bleeding opens;
• blood appears in the stool;
• hemoglobin in the blood decreases;
• the patient begins to suffer from anemia;
• duodenogastric reflux develops.

Traditional treatments include diet and medications that coat and protect the mucosa. But even if the patient chooses treatment with folk remedies, the diet will have to be followed in any case.

1. Ulcer-like:

• discomfort after eating;
• nausea;
• heartburn;
• bloating;
• belching;
• so-called “hunger pains”, which are especially severe in the evening and at night;
• dyskinesia (disorder of the gallbladder and its ducts);
• aversion to food (sometimes);
• brittle nails and hair.

2. Hemorrhagic - appear in more complex and advanced cases, when the wounds begin to bleed:

• vomiting with blood;
• dark stool that resembles coffee grounds (the result of bleeding);
• decreased hemoglobin levels, and in the worst case, anemia;
• weakness, constant fatigue.

The pain can vary in intensity and largely depends on the location of the lesion. Erosion of the antrum of the stomach (treatment must begin immediately) causes severe pain in the middle of the abdomen and near the navel. When the body of the stomach is affected, the pain is localized in the left hypochondrium.

Diagnostics

Before treating erosion, it is necessary to be examined and pass all the necessary tests:

• general blood test (there may be signs of inflammation, anemia);
• general urine analysis;
• biochemical blood test (to determine the functional state of internal organs);
• examination of feces for occult blood (possibility of detecting bleeding erosions);
• fibrogastroduodenoscopy is the main diagnostic method, visual inspection of the condition of the gastric mucosa and erosions;
• studies for Helicobacter pylori (identification of the cause of the disease, which is necessary for the adequacy of treatment);
• X-ray of the stomach (done if FGDS is not possible);
• Ultrasound of the abdominal organs (to exclude pathologies of the abdominal organs);
• pH-metry of gastric juice (normally on an empty stomach - 1.5-2) - the acidity of gastric juice is determined.

Accurate and complete information about the presence of erosions, their number, types, and location is provided by a diagnostic method such as endoscopic examination. Using a thin hose with a camera and a flashlight at the end, the gastroenterologist obtains an image on a monitor. Although the procedure is extremely unpleasant, it is very short in time (only a few minutes).

To make sure the diagnosis is correct, doctors often ask the patient to undergo a stool examination (to detect hidden bleeding) and a complete blood count (to detect anemia). In cases where there is a suspicion of stomach cancer, methods such as biopsy, colonoscopy, ultrasound and tomography are used.

Treatment with folk remedies

The approach to treatment depends on the form of the disease: acute or chronic erosive gastritis and the course of chronic gastritis (in the stage of exacerbation or remission). In case of an acute process with the development of gastrointestinal bleeding, immediate hospitalization in a surgical hospital is indicated. In case of chronic course, it is necessary to undergo a full examination and, depending on the results, begin conservative treatment.

When Helicobacter pylori is detected, so-called eradication therapy is required, aimed at destroying Helicobacter. The first line of therapy consists of two antibiotics (Clarithromycin and Amoxicillin or Metronidazole) and a proton pump blocker (Omeprazole). Treatment lasts 7 days.

Then they take a breath test again for the presence of Helicobacter pylori. If eradication is not successful, then quadruple therapy is performed: two antibiotics (Tetracycline Amoxicillin or Metronidazole), Omeprazole and a gastroprotector (De-Nol).

For gastric erosion, treatment with folk remedies can be quite effective.

1. Chamomile decoction. Chamomile has soothing and antiseptic properties. To prepare the decoction you will need boiling water and chamomile flowers (can be purchased at the pharmacy). Pour boiling water over one tablespoon and leave. Use 2-3 times a day after meals.
2. A decoction of eucalyptus will help cure erosion. Pour boiling water over one tablespoon of eucalyptus leaves. Take 50 ml three times a day.
3. Treatment with sea buckthorn oil. Half an hour before meals, take 0.5 teaspoon of sea buckthorn oil. An excellent wound healing agent.
4. Milk with honey. Drink for stomach pain.
5. Flax seeds have long been known for their healing properties. Seed oil can create a protective film on a damaged surface. You should use 1 teaspoon of oil in the morning.
6. Sea buckthorn juice helps fight not only stomach damage, but also strengthens the immune system.
7. Bearberry solution is widely used in folk medicine. To do this, make a decoction: 5 grams of bearberry leaves are poured with boiling water. Then cook for 15-20 minutes, filter. Take 1 tablespoon before meals.
8. Calamus root is grated. One tablespoon is poured into a glass of water, boiled for 20 minutes, filtered. Drink 2 tablespoons before meals.
9. A mixture of chamomile, thyme and tansy flowers. Pour two glasses of boiling water, leave, and filter. Take two tablespoons a day before meals. This combination of herbs has an antiseptic, calming effect on the mucous membrane.

1. Infusion of celandine. Can you take celandine orally? pure form, but remember that this plant is poisonous, so exceeding the permissible doses can lead to unpleasant consequences. So, you need to take a tablespoon of crushed celandine leaves and pour them hot water. Leave to infuse for 2 hours. Take 1 teaspoon one hour before meals three times a day. The course of treatment is 30 days, followed by a 10-day break, after which the course can be resumed.
2. Pharmaceutical camomile. Pour a tablespoon of the plant with boiling water (200 ml). Boil for 15 minutes. After removing from heat, cool the broth and take 1/3 cup half an hour before meals. Chamomile relieves inflammation well and also has a calming effect.
3. Immortelle tincture.

Remember that immortelle is also an excellent choleretic agent, and therefore has contraindications.

Having established a diagnosis and received a prescription from a doctor, immediately begin treatment for erosion. Successful assistants to drugs in this matter will be folk remedies treatment.

Of course, diet is very important when treating gastric erosion.

• The stomach should not be overloaded during the treatment period, so the therapeutic diet should be gentle.
• If you drink prescribed medications heavily, but at the same time consume various carbonated drinks, chips, spicy, smoked, salty, sour foods, recovery is unlikely to occur.
• During the treatment period, you will have to give up rich meat broths, fried foods, strong tea and coffee, and citrus juices.

• The healing power of white cabbage has long been known. The treatment of most stomach diseases with cabbage juice is recognized by medicine. Methionine contained in cabbage promotes healing of the gastric mucosa. Vegetable soups based on cabbage must be included in the menu of patients with erosion. Taking 50 grams of freshly squeezed cabbage juice daily will also be beneficial. If you don't have a juicer, use a regular grater. Grate a piece of cabbage, place the resulting pulp in cheesecloth and squeeze out the juice.
• Sauerkraut is a very effective folk remedy, in small quantities has the ability to normalize stomach acidity, so it should also be included in the diet.

Sea buckthorn oil helps restore the mucous membrane of the organ walls. Take 1 teaspoon of oil 2 times a day before meals.

Flax seed is a real storehouse of useful substances for restoring mucous membranes and getting rid of erosion. Flax-seed fights viruses, heals wounds, normalizes metabolic processes. When the seed is soaked, mucus is released from it; once inside the body, the mucus envelops the walls of the stomach, thereby protecting them from any irritants.

Flax seed infusion

1. In the evening, pour 3 tablespoons of seeds into 1 liter of hot boiled water. Let it brew. Strain in the morning. Take the resulting liquid four times a day, 10 minutes before meals, half a glass.

Since ancient times, honey has been known for its healing properties. Do not forget about it during the treatment of gastric erosion. Warm drinks with honey will help strengthen the body and provide invaluable assistance in the fight against illness. You can also eat a large spoonful of honey in the morning on an empty stomach without washing anything down. The gradual penetration of this useful product has a beneficial effect on the mucous membranes of the esophagus and stomach. After this, do not eat or drink anything for 20-30 minutes.

The use of propolis during the treatment of stomach erosion has also proven effective. You need to take 1 teaspoon of propolis tincture in the morning before meals. This unique product not only restores the mucous membrane, but also improves immunity.

To do this, you need to pour crushed dry calamus root (1 tablespoon) with boiling water (200g) and boil for about 15 minutes. Allow the liquid to cool. Take 50 ml before meals.

As traditional treatment erosion of the stomach and duodenum, the use of chaga tincture will be very useful. In Soviet times, this medicinal mushroom was harvested in tons state level. But now all this has been forgotten and in vain. Chaga contains a huge amount of useful substances that have an antiseptic, antimicrobial and restorative effect on the entire body.

5. Fresh cabbage juice will help prevent the occurrence of gastric erosions. It should be fresh and warm. A single dose is half a glass. Take on an empty stomach.

To summarize, it is worth saying that gastric erosion is a difficult problem. Treatment and diet prescribed by doctors must be followed very responsibly. Otherwise, a peptic ulcer may occur.

Traditional medicine provides a large selection of medicines. Although treatment with their help takes a long time, they effectively help solve the problem.

To achieve positive results faster, you must adhere to a strict diet. It involves eating easily digestible foods that do not irritate the stomach walls.

This list includes a number of products in the form of:

• oatmeal and semolina;
• oatmeal or rice jelly;
• cheese;
• boiled eggs and omelet;
• pureed vegetable soups;
• butter and vegetable oil;
• low-fat sour cream and cottage cheese;

Treatment of gastric erosion with folk remedies is an excellent alternative to medication and sometimes gives quick and lasting results, improving the general condition of the body.” /

Modern pharmaceuticals offer a wide selection of drugs used for the treatment of gastroenterological diseases. The drugs are different pharmacological properties and indications for use, so there is no universal treatment.

So, meet the medications for stomach erosion. What drugs are prescribed for stomach erosion, including for pregnant women, what effect they have, and what traditional medicine methods will come to the aid of those who suffer from erosion.

There is an opinion that erosions are initial stage in the pathogenetic process of formation of ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Erosion ulcers are distinguished by a smaller depth of tissue damage. Erosions can be single or multiple.

There are other types of classifications:

• by location (erosion of the esophagus, stomach or duodenum);
• by the nature of the process (benign, malignant - cancer, Crohn's disease).

A more precise medical classification has not yet been developed, therefore it is believed that erosions are divided into acute and chronic.

Forms and symptoms of the disease

Acute erosion is characterized by a sudden onset and characteristic pronounced symptoms:

• gastrointestinal bleeding (vomiting “coffee grounds” or mixed with blood, black stools, anemia, occult blood in the stool);
• heartburn;
• epigastric pain associated with eating;
• belching;
• nausea;
• symptoms characteristic of pathology of the liver, biliary tract, pancreas;
• signs of cardiovascular diseases (pain and burning behind the sternum, rapid heartbeat, pallor, etc.).

Note! Such symptoms may indicate a perforation of the walls of the digestive organs (perforated ulcer), which, in the absence of emergency medical care, ends in death.

With successful treatment, erosive lesions heal within 7-60 days (depending on the severity of the process, its location and the patient’s compliance with medical prescriptions).

Chronic erosions can persist for many months and even years, reminiscent of dyspeptic symptoms (heartburn, belching, periodic pain, a feeling of heaviness), characteristic of other diseases of the digestive system.

Chronic erosions that can recur - worsen in an unfavorable situation:

• stress;
• poor nutrition;
• bad habits;
• failure to comply with hygiene rules.

Medications

What pills to take for stomach erosion, and whether antibiotics are needed for stomach erosion, is decided by a gastroenterologist based on the results of a medical examination. If the Helicobacter pylori bacterium is detected in the stomach, antibacterial therapy using special treatment regimens (eradication) is recommended.

List of antibiotics for gastric erosion:

Note! Antibiotics are dispensed from pharmacies with a doctor's prescription.

In addition to antimicrobial agents, other medications of different pharmacological groups are used.

Antacids- medicines that neutralize excess hydrochloric acid in digestive juices. Available in suspensions and lozenges (Gaviscon, Maalox, Phosphalugel, Almagel, Rennie, Rutacid, etc.). Used as a symptomatic remedy to eliminate dyspeptic symptoms - epigastric pain, heartburn, sour belching.

H2-histamine drugs(Ranitidine, Famotidine) are the most inexpensive means of relieving stomach pain and heartburn. Inhibits the synthesis of hydrochloric acid. Used for pathologies accompanied by high acidity. Intravenous administration is possible for acute diseases.

Gastroprotectors(bismuth preparations - De-nol, Ulkavis; sucralfate - Venter) - interacting with the internal environment of the digestive organs, they form a protective film on the surface of the mucosa, which protects the gastrointestinal mucosa from the irritating effects of acid and enzymes.

Proton pump inhibitors(Omez, Ultop, Losek, Ortanol, Zero groove, Controloc, Nexium, Emanera, Lanzap, Pariet, etc.). Suppress the production of enzymes that stimulate the excretion of hydrochloric acid. Promote the healing of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastric and intestinal mucosa. New generation drugs (all except Omeprazole) have a long-lasting effect.

Enzyme preparations(Festal, Unienzym, Enzistal, Penzital, Mezim forte, Creon, Micrazim, etc.) are used to improve digestion and eliminate dyspeptic symptoms, the appearance of which is inextricably linked with pathologies of the digestive system.

Antiemetics and prokinetics (Metoclopramide, Ganaton, Motilium, Cerucal, Motilak) are used in combination therapy of gastrointestinal pathologies. They prevent the reflux of stomach contents into the esophagus and normalize the functioning of the sphincters.

Tissue regenerators (Methyluracil, Sea buckthorn oil) - accelerate the healing of erosions and ulcers.

Painkillers And antispasmodics(Iberogast, Duspatalin, Dicetel, Buscopan, Vikalin, Vikair, Bellastesin, Bellalgin) - eliminate pain. Used as a symptomatic remedy. Some of them provide positive influence on the gastric mucosa (Iberogast, Vikalin, Vikair, Almagel A).

Usually a complex of drugs is used. The doctor decides which medications to take for gastric erosion.

Folk remedies

For the treatment of erosion ethnoscience offers many recipes, the effectiveness of which has been tested by time. We offer the most affordable and safest of them.

Note! Even safe ones folk recipes may cause the appearance side effects Therefore, it is recommended to consult a doctor first.

Treatment of pregnant women

• sea ​​buckthorn oil;

Stomach erosion: what it is, causes, symptoms and how to treat the disease

Erosion is damage to the mucous membrane of the stomach walls, while the underlying tissue remains unharmed.

For this reason, after its healing, not a trace remains. It is one of the most common diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

Read more about what it is and how to cure stomach erosion later in the article.

What is gastric erosion

Gastric erosion is a lesion of the stomach walls, accompanied by one or more ulcers, which can form on the lower surface of the walls, as shown in the image above.

Often pathology develops in the process of chronic diseases, such as liver failure.

It can only be determined with a complete diagnostic study.

Classification

There are a large number of types of erosions:

• In count:
  • single. There are up to 3 wounds;
  • multiple. There are more than 3 foci of mucosal lesions; they can be located in different parts of the stomach.
• Due to the occurrence:
  • independent;
  • formed due to accompanying diseases;
  • malignant (due to oncology).
• By external signs:
  • flat;
  • polypoid;
  • bleeding.
• According to the flow form:
  • chronic. High risk of ulcers. Characterized by phases of calm and activity;
  • spicy. A rapid change in self-perception and the manifestation of a sharp pain syndrome.
• By the volume of destruction of the mucous membrane of the stomach wall:
  • complete (redness and excessive swelling are visible, rarely found unchanged. There are growths in the lower part of the organ);
  • superficial (areas of erosion are flat, having different extent and volume, there is no redness);
  • hemorrhagic (formation of bright red dots in places of erosion, bleeding is observed along their edges. The course is acute, it is detected).

Causes of gastric erosion

The main reasons lie in the violation of the special balance between and the protective layer.

Those. hydrochloric acid, which is contained in gastric juice, begins to corrode the mucous membrane, causing damage to the surface; as a result of this process, gastric erosion is formed.

Factors causing a malfunction in the smooth operation of the protective mechanism:

• surgical interventions on the digestive tract;
• result of injuries, burns;
• emotional disorders;
• uncontrolled consumption of food that is too fatty, spicy, hot;
• consumption of large amounts of alcohol, painkillers and;
• smoking;
• decrease in the body’s immune forces against the background of inflammatory diseases;
• oncology;
• settlement in the mucous membrane.

Symptoms of gastric erosion

The main symptom of erosion is severe pain and cramps in the abdominal cavity.

Painful sensations are slightly suppressed by painkillers, but the development of the disease continues to proceed just as rapidly. They are especially intensified after eating and at night.

You may also experience:

• nausea followed by vomiting;
• belching;
• fragility of nails and hair (this is due to a decrease in hemoglobin due to bleeding erosions. Because of this, the skin may acquire a slightly bluish tint);
• general weakening of the body and increased fatigue;
• functional disorder of the biliary system;
• pain usually occurs 1-1.5 hours after a meal, which is why sometimes the patient may refuse food altogether;
• blood in feces and vomit. Immediate health care in this case!

Sometimes the disease occurs without obvious signs, especially when it appears again.

Diagnostics

The main study is endoscopic, during which a piece of the affected mucous membrane is taken (stomach biopsy). It is taken for further laboratory analysis to determine whether it is malignant.

Additionally doctor conducting a survey, during which it is determined when and how the symptoms of erosion appeared, what nature of the disease is, primary or repeated.

Can be carried out X-ray examination with the help of a contrast agent that accumulates in the foci of erosion. In terms of information content, it is inferior to endoscopic examination, because not all details are clearly visible.

Ultrasound allows you to assess the structural state of the organ and its activity, and with its help it is possible to identify foci of inflammation and erosion. The method is not very informative.

In addition, the doctor prescribes tests for laboratory tests of biological fluids (blood, urine) and feces (for occult blood and the presence). After collecting information and analysis results, he decides how to treat erosion and conducts further monitoring of the patient’s condition.

Treatment of gastric erosion

Symptoms and treatment are inextricably linked. Before starting therapy, it is necessary to find out whether the disease arose independently or as a result of some factors. Based on this, treatment is prescribed either for the erosion itself or for the underlying disease.

Treatment of erosion includes several areas:

• prescribing medications to treat the erosion itself, or the underlying disease that caused it;
• diet;
• procedures and surgeries as necessary;
• folk remedies as auxiliary.

Medicines

First of all, medications are prescribed that regulate the production of hydrochloric acid, the main component of gastric juice. In addition, medications are prescribed that relieve unpleasant symptoms: pain, cramps, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, sour belching.

The most popular medicines:

• antacids. They temporarily and reversibly reduce the acidity of gastric contents and protect the mucous walls of the organ. Gastal, Rennie, Almagel;
• proton pump inhibitors. They reduce the production of hydrochloric acid. , Nolpaza, Nexium;
• H2-histamine receptor antagonists. They inhibit the secretion of juice (spontaneous and stimulated), reduce the secretion of pepsin (an enzyme of the digestive system). Ranitidine, Famotidine;
• dopamine receptor blockers. They are used for indigestion, when the patient is constantly accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and a feeling of a full stomach. Motilium, all drugs based on domperidone;
• antibacterial drugs. If, in addition to erosion, a bacterium is found in the stomach, then antibiotics are used to destroy it. , Clarithromycin;
• bismuth preparations. They have an anti-inflammatory and astringent effect, form a protective film on the surface of erosion, increase the resistance of the mucous membrane to the aggressive effects of gastric juice, which allows wounds to quickly heal. It also exhibits a bactericidal effect against Helicobacter pylori. De-nol, Ulkavis.

Nutrition for gastric erosions

The main component of therapy is a special diet. After all, without meeting certain requirements, treatment will be useless.

The diet excludes from the patient’s diet:

• too cold and hot food, as well as too spicy, salty, peppery, fatty;
• fatty fish and meats;
• smoked meats, pickles, spices, hot sauces;
• coffee and caffeine containing drinks;
• citruses;
• soups made from fatty broths;
• strong alcohol;
• lemonades and any sweet drinks;
• fast food.

Required for use:

• homemade jelly;
• dairy and fermented milk products, eggs, butter;
• boiled, steamed dishes, cereals.

When following a diet, small and frequent meals play an important role.

Enveloping foods are good for the stomach ( jelly and well-cooked porridge, for example, rice). They additionally protect the walls of the organ from the aggressive effects of hydrochloric acid. They are also a good way to relieve heartburn if you don’t have medications on hand.

Procedures and surgical interventions

To improve blood circulation in a damaged organ, a physiotherapy procedure - laser radiation - can be used. An instrument with a light guide is inserted into the stomach cavity, and the doctor precisely irradiates the ulcers and erosions. The procedure lasts no more than 10 minutes.

It is mandatory to prescribe blood clotting drugs: Vikasol, Aminocaproic acid. By accelerating blood circulation, the procedure provides fast healing erosion, relieves pain, reduces inflammation.

When bleeding occurs, various manipulations can be performed. If it is not significant, an endoscope can be used. With its help, it enters the stomach cold water, then cauterize small damage to the mucous membrane with a special laser.

If the case is extremely advanced, surgical intervention comes into play - it is performed removal of part of the stomach with elimination of the affected area.

If the outcome of the operation is positive, the patient feels satisfactory within a week, and bed rest is canceled after 10 days. The rehabilitation period is long and can take about a year.

Folk remedies

Quite often, patients begin to be treated with folk advice before they see a doctor.

Some don't accept medications at all. But still, these methods cannot replace full-fledged drug treatment and can only be used as additional therapy before contacting a specialist.

Treatment usually begins with infusions, tinctures and decoctions of medicinal herbs:

• Dog-rose fruit;
• Calamus root;
• Chamomile flowers;
• Mint leaves;
• Celandine grass.

Honey, aloe juice, propolis, and sea buckthorn oil are also used.

Herbal teas are very useful. Especially chamomile and mint. The first has an anti-inflammatory effect and also slightly reduces pain. The second relieves spasms and inflammation. Take half a glass 3 times a day before the main meal.

Don't forget about Essentuki medicinal table water. The indications for it include many stomach diseases, including erosion. This water should be used correctly medicinal purposes: It is advisable to release the gas first, take it slightly warm.

Essentuki are produced under numbers 4 and 17. It is worth taking into account the accompanying diseases, because water alone is used for low acidity stomach, and the other vice versa.

Sea buckthorn oil accelerates the healing of organ walls if taken in the morning on an empty stomach 20-30 minutes before meals. To achieve maximum effect, take 1 tablespoon up to 3 times a day.

Evaluation of treatment effectiveness

Determined by a decrease or complete absence of pain syndromes and an improvement in the patient’s general condition.

During this period, it is very important to adhere to a special gentle diet, take supportive medications, and measures to prevent recurrence of the disease.

Using endoscopic examination, complete healing of erosions is monitored, bleeding stops, if any, and the absence of swelling and redness of the mucous walls is noted.

What happens if erosion is not treated?

Untreated erosion is fraught with the development of the following pathologies:

• . This disease affects more deep tissue stomach, which is quite dangerous for health. The main danger of an ulcer is that it can break through the organ, with all the contents ending up in the abdominal cavity, where purulent (inflammation of the peritoneum) develops over time. There is no drug treatment, only surgery.
• Polyp formation. Initially they are benign formations, but can degenerate into malignant ones. The threat is that they practically do not manifest themselves until they reach large sizes. They are usually found during endoscopic examination.
• . With internal bleeding, hemoglobin decreases, which affects general well-being. Concentration decreases, appetite and quality of sleep are disrupted, and heart failure may even develop. It is often difficult to immediately determine, because not all people are ready to undergo gastroscopy for this, because do not believe that the stomach and hemoglobin can be connected.
• Stomach cancer. On early stages may have no symptoms at all, or the patient mistakes it for other diseases, some take the signs for an exacerbation.

Preventive measures

To prevent the development of the disease you need:

• rejection of bad habits;
• avoidance of stressful situations;
• balanced menu;
• periodic health checks with a doctor;
• timely treatment of gastrointestinal diseases in the initial stages;
• careful and rational use of painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs;
• strengthening the body's immune forces during the cold season;
• Regular outdoor exercise, leisurely walks, swimming - all this increases stress resistance.

Prognosis for patients

With timely treatment, the prognosis is positive, superficial erosions heal quickly and do not leave scars on the surface of the mucous membrane, unlike a real ulcer.

If you go to the hospital on time, newly formed erosions disappear within 7-10 days.

Interesting

Stomach erosion is an area of ​​the mucous membrane of the digestive organ that has been destroyed.

Erosion occurs if the protective forces of the mucous tissues lining the organ inside are not able to cope with the aggressive effects on them:

• too hot food;
• food that is too cold;
• fatty and spicy foods;
• alcohol and nicotine;
• salts of heavy metals;
• alkalis and corrosive substances;
• medications.

• blood appears in the stool;
• hemoglobin in the blood decreases;
• the patient begins to suffer from anemia;
• duodenogastric reflux develops.

Traditional treatments include diet and medications that coat and protect the mucosa. But even if the patient chooses treatment with folk remedies, the diet will have to be followed in any case.
