Gastritis Treatment

Expert Gastritis Care by Dr. Shipra Gulati

Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach lining that can occur suddenly (acute gastritis) or develop gradually over time (chronic gastritis). It may be caused by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, prolonged use of pain-relieving medications, excessive alcohol consumption, stress, or certain autoimmune conditions. If left untreated, gastritis can lead to stomach ulcers, bleeding, and other gastrointestinal complications.

Dr. Shipra Gulati, MBBS, MD, DNB (Internal Medicine), provides comprehensive diagnosis and personalized treatment for gastritis using evidence-based medical practices. Her approach focuses on relieving symptoms, identifying the underlying cause, promoting healing of the stomach lining, and preventing recurrence through long-term care and lifestyle guidance.

Comprehensive Clinical Evaluation

Accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment. Dr. Gulati performs a detailed assessment to determine the cause and severity of gastritis before recommending an individualized treatment plan.

The evaluation may include:

  • Detailed medical history and physical examination
  • Assessment of symptoms and dietary habits
  • Blood investigations
  • Stool tests for H. pylori infection
  • Upper GI Endoscopy when indicated
  • H. pylori diagnostic testing
  • Evaluation for gastrointestinal bleeding
  • Additional investigations based on clinical findings

This comprehensive evaluation helps identify the root cause and guides appropriate medical management.
