Question

Can gastritis cause headaches and overall weakness?

Answer

Gastritis can sometimes be accompanied by symptoms such as headaches and overall weakness, often seen in gastric flu. Treatment may include taking Huoxiang Zhengqi Water orally, along with a light diet and adequate fluid intake, avoiding fried foods and hot drinks. At the same time, spicy and irritating foods should be avoided, and good living habits should be maintained to promote recovery from the disease. If a child shows symptoms of acute gastritis, medical treatment should be sought immediately, and self-medication should not be used to alleviate symptoms. Parents should provide care and appropriate attention to their children, and assist them in receiving timely treatment.
