I am yet to show the report to my Gastroentrologist.
Brief Answer:
Discuss with your Gastroenterologist regarding H.pylori erradication
Detailed Answer:
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist (DM).
Most common cause of antral erosions and antral gastritis is a bacterial infection known as H.pylori for which H.pylori erradication is required. Thiss include two antibiotics and one proton pump inhibitor for 14 days. But I am not sure whether the test for H.pylori has been done or not. So discuss with your Gastroenterologist regarding this.
Also I will suggest you to do the following which I found very useful in my patients with belching:
1.Avoid fatty and spicy meals
2. Don’t lie down soon after meals for at least two hour
3.Take small and frequent meals, instead of full meals at a time
4. wear loose clothes
5. If you are overweight or obese do weight reduction with dieting and exercise
6. Avoid smoking and alcohol if you take
7.Don't drink water with meals
8. Do regular aerobic exercise at least 30 minutes / day
9. If you are obese or overweight then you should reduce your weight again by exercise and low caloric diet
10.Observe when you take milk or milk products whether these symptoms worsen, if yes then please avoid them
11. Avoid carbonated drinks, wine or beer
12. take black tea and add cardamom and ginger to it and take them with meals
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. If you have any further query I will be happy to answer that too. Remain in touch and get-well soon.
