4. Gastric antral inflammation
The stomach is divided into many positions starting from the cardia, aneurysm, the great curvature, the body, and the small curvature, then the antrum, and the last position is the pylorus. Thus, it can be said that gastritis is a condition in which the gastric mucosa is damaged near the end of the stomach, before the pylorus. Gastritis is usually manifested by pain above the navel. Depending on the severity of the disease, the pain will be intense or dull for a long time.
Currently, gastritis is often seen in many different ages, but the most common is still at the age of 35 and older. However, recent studies have partly shown that the proportion of young patients with antral gastritis is increasing, even in children there is a risk of this disease.

Normally, Helicobacter pylori (HP) bacteria are commonly encountered in the mucous membrane of the stomach and duodenum and can settle in there. However, when encountering a favorable environment such as unstable pH in the stomach, the body's resistance weakens, they will break down the mucus layer to attack the stomach lining and cause damage.
The reason why stomach Hp infection is known as "the silent spreader" is because the disease does not show any unusual symptoms. Normally, to detect Hp bacteria in the stomach, patients are usually prescribed a test. HP is the cause of stomach ulcers and is one of the risk factors for stomach cancer.
