A member asked:
35 year old male who had a egd done what does diffuse mild inflammation characterized by congestion (edema) and erythema was found in the gastric antrum mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It means that, in a part of the stomach, there was inflammation-the inflammation is described as red and swollen. It also said it was mild. This is likely gastritis in a part of the stomach. Your GI doctor needs to go over this result with you and offer treatment-likely with a proton pump inhibitor medicine. Good luck to you!
