Stomach Inflammation Symptoms, Causes and More
Possible Causes of Stomach Inflammation
Chronic alcohol abuse is one of the major contributors to gastritis because it can erode the stomach lining. Medical conditions, such as autoimmune disease and bile reflux, can also inflame the stomach lining.
Other causes of stomach inflammation include bacterial infections and medication. Physical stress, such as sudden and severe injury, also affects the stomach lining. The injury doesn't have to affect the stomach directly to cause gastritis. Brain injuries and burns can also contribute to gastritis.
