What Is a Gastritis Consultation?

Gastritis occurs when the stomach lining becomes inflamed or irritated. A consultation helps determine the underlying cause—such as infection, stress, diet, alcohol use, medications, or acid imbalance—and guides you toward effective treatment and symptom relief.

What We Review During Your Consultation:
  • Onset, frequency, and severity of stomach pain
  • Nausea, vomiting, and appetite changes
  • Bloating, acid reflux, and indigestion
  • Diet, alcohol intake, caffeine use, and triggers
  • Medication history including NSAIDs

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Z-2-H Family Med & Urgent Care

What is gastritis?

Gastritis is inflammation of the stomach lining, often caused by infection, irritants, stress, acid imbalance, or medication side effects.

What symptoms indicate gastritis?

Common symptoms include burning stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, bloating, loss of appetite, indigestion, or feeling full after small meals.

When should I seek care for gastritis?

Seek evaluation if stomach pain persists, symptoms worsen, vomiting occurs frequently, or if symptoms interfere with eating or daily activity.

Can gastritis be evaluated at home?

Yes. Mobile clinicians can assess symptoms, review diet and medication factors, and guide treatment plans from your home.

What causes gastritis?

Causes include infection (H. pylori), alcohol, stress, NSAIDs, acidic foods, caffeine, or chronic irritation of the stomach lining.

Do I need testing for gastritis?

Testing may be recommended if symptoms are severe or long-lasting. Providers may recommend labs, H. pylori testing, or referral for endoscopy.

What treatments help with gastritis?

Treatment may include acid reducers, diet changes, avoiding irritants, medication adjustments, hydration, and managing infection if present.

Can diet improve gastritis symptoms?

Yes. Avoiding acidic foods, caffeine, alcohol, spicy meals, and high-fat items often improves symptoms. Eating smaller meals may also help.

Is gastritis dangerous?

Untreated gastritis can lead to ulcers, severe inflammation, or bleeding. Early care reduces risk and improves recovery.

Can telehealth help with gastritis symptoms?

Yes. Virtual visits can help determine whether symptoms require in-home treatment, clinic evaluation, or additional diagnostic testing.

Does insurance cover gastritis evaluation?

Most insurance plans cover assessment, treatment guidance, labs, and follow-up appointments.

How long does it take for gastritis to improve?

Many patients feel relief within days once the underlying cause is treated. Chronic cases may require ongoing management.

Can stress worsen gastritis?

Yes. Stress can increase stomach acid production and worsen inflammation, making symptoms more frequent.
