The causes of diarrhea with gastritis

Gastritis is a frequently occurring disease of the gastrointestinal tract, so patients often complain about such an unpleasant phenomenon as gastritis diarrhea.

They are interested in how dangerous and serious it is, what are the causes of diarrhea and how to treat it.

Causes of gastritis, its form

Gastritis is an inflammation of the mucous walls of the stomach, which occurs for various reasons.

It is believed that the causative agent of this disease is the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, which is activated as a result of decreased immunity.

Gastritis can occur in two forms:

• acute gastritis;
• chronic gastritis.

To provoke an acute form of gastritis may be improper nutrition, food or alcohol poisoning, nervous stress.

Diarrhea with an acute form of gastritis is a common occurrence, which is accompanied, in particular, by nausea and vomiting.

The reasons for diarrhea are that, due to insufficient isolation of the stomach juice, the food used is not fully digested and in this form enters the intestine.

In this case, putrefactive and fermenting processes can occur, leading to the appearance of eructations, vomiting and diarrhea in a person.

To understand that a person suffers from gastritis, doctors can use gastroduodenoscopy, which is a study of the stomach with a probe.

As a result of this procedure, a small piece of the gastric mucosa is taken for analysis. In addition, blood tests, urine and feces help to understand whether there is an infection of Helicobacter pylori.

If there is no bacterial lesion, the treatment of diarrhea with acute gastritis is the normalization of the lifestyle and the observance of certain dietary rules.

Chronic gastritis occurs in the case of non-compliance with medical recommendations, under the influence of nervous stress and anxiety.

Sometimes the disease can not make itself felt for years, and then suddenly the exacerbation begins.

Diarrhea with this form of gastritis can be replaced by constipation, the stool is unstable and causes a lot of trouble for patients.

Depending on the activity of the secretory function, gastritis with reduced gastric acidity and high secretory function is distinguished.

Gastritis with increased acidity of the stomach causes constipation rather than diarrhea. He should be treated with drugs that reduce the acidity of the stomach, various antispasmodics and antimicrobial agents.

Much more trouble the patient delivers the situation with reduced secretion.

Low acidity of the stomach has a very big influence on its ability to digest food.

Diarrhea is a characteristic feature of this type of gastritis. The reason for it is a slowing of metabolism, incomplete digestion of food.

The patient constantly feels a breakdown, lethargy, apathy, can lose weight. Constant diarrhea leads to intestinal dysbiosis, dehydration and intoxication of the body.

If diarrhea with gastritis lasts more than 5 days, it is necessary to urgently consult a doctor, especially if diarrhea is accompanied by nausea and vomiting.

Dehydration, caused by vomiting and diarrhea, sometimes occurs so swiftly that if you do not take urgent measures and do not start treating the disease, then a fatal outcome is possible.

Frequent and prolonged diarrhea can be a cause of impaired intestinal microflora. It provokes a dysbacteriosis, in the intestine the pathogenic microorganisms that influence the process of digestion and assimilation of food multiply.

To restore the intestinal microflora and stop diarrhea, prescribe drugs with lactose, which regulate the composition of microflora and suppress the growth of pathogenic bacteria.

One such medication is Bifidumbacterin, which is available in the form of powder or capsules. With this disease, "Bifidumbacterin" should drink 10 capsules from one to three times a day.
