A member asked:

Can antral gastritis cause chest heaviness and pain? i mostly feel it in the center of my chest. how long until meds recovery? 1 week or more?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Antral gastritis : Antral gastritis usually presents as epigastric pain below the sternum, not inthe chest. If associated with nausea, it may represent outlet obstriction or poor gastric emptying requiring more testing than we have so far.
