There are no main symptoms that could be used as a guide. Usually, the signs of gastritis are barely noticeable.
Doctor Sergei Vyalov spoke about this in more detail, writes News.ru.
However, the specialist explained what exactly needs to be paid attention to in order to identify the problem.
According to Vyalov, classic gastritis is indicated by slight discomfort during or after eating. Heartburn and heaviness in the stomach may also be observed.
But, as the gastroenterologist noted, most often such signs are ignored, which does not allow treatment to be started on time.
If the inflammation has already led to problems with the stomach, then there may be heaviness, an early feeling of satiety, and overfullness.
As a result, a person could eat little, but in the end it seems as if he even overate.
But there are other situations.
For example, the patient does not feel full and continues to eat. A burning sensation appears in the upper abdomen, heaviness and pain occur.
