A member asked:
Can you please tell me how can an inactive gastritis lead to active gatritis then gastric cancer? thank you.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes...: H Pylori related gastritis can become active/ inactive and finally turn to gastric cancer. Other factors contribute to this process...timing, hot spicy food, medications.
