Stomach-Related Conditions – Gastritis, Gastric Ulcers, and Related Conditions

Stomach-related conditions, including gastritis , gastric ulcers , and other gastrointestinal disorders, can cause significant discomfort and impact overall digestive health.

Gastritis is the inflammation of the stomach lining, often caused by factors such as H. pylori infection , excessive alcohol consumption, prolonged use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or stress. Symptoms of gastritis include stomach pain , nausea , vomiting , and bloating . Dr. Shabeer uses advanced diagnostic tools like endoscopy and biopsy to diagnose gastritis and develop personalized treatment plans, including medications to reduce stomach acid and promote healing.

Gastric ulcers are open sores that form on the stomach lining due to prolonged irritation from stomach acid. The most common causes of gastric ulcers include H. pylori infection and the overuse of NSAIDs. Symptoms include burning stomach pain , indigestion , and vomiting blood . Dr. Shabeer provides targeted treatment for gastric ulcers, including antibiotics to eliminate H. pylori and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to reduce acid production and promote healing.

Other related conditions, such as acid reflux and dyspepsia , can also contribute to stomach discomfort. Dr. Shabeer’s expertise in gastroenterology ensures that each patient receives a comprehensive evaluation and tailored treatment plan to address their specific condition.
