Gastritis refers to inflammation of the stomach lining and can occur as both an acute, short-term or chronic, longer-term condition. Modern lifestyle factors including alcohol and anti-inflammatory medication along with some allergic conditions and infection are usually to blame for the condition. Research has found that some forms of chronic atrophic gastritis can increase the risk of developing stomach cancer, making effective treatment even more important. Even when non-cancer forming, gastritis needs to be managed to ensure optimum health and well-being. Vaman, Virechan, Pizhichil, Shirodhara, Abhyangam.
