A member asked:
What are the types of gastritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many reasons: Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining. The only true common reason is infection with h pylori and rarely autoimmune gastritis. Majority of what doctors call gastritis is actually irritation of mucosa for example from medications like aleve, (naproxen) Ibuprofen etc. And also alcohol, smoking etc.
