A doctor has provided 1 answer

Life style changes: Usually it is not permanent. Gastritis and reflux can be related to a variety of things including lack of exercise, excessive caffeine, alcohol or sour foods, sleeping soon after eating, increased stress, otc anti-inflammatory use. H pylori infection is another cause. Implement lifestyle changes and may need, if not already on them medications like omeprazole for 6-12 weeks.
