Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach lining that is usually caused by infection with H. pylori bacteria or long-term use of NSAIDs. The most common symptoms are stomach upset and pain, but can also include indigestion, heartburn, abdominal pain, hiccups, loss of appetite, and nausea. Risk factors include H. pylori infection, alcoholism, smoking, and inflammatory bowel disease. Treatment depends on the cause but may include lifestyle changes like stress reduction and avoiding irritants, while some mild cases may resolve on their own over time.
