Hello,
To the question “What should I do with stool like diarrhea when treating gastroesophageal reflux disease with gastritis? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
With adolescence, the risk of malignancies is low, but if you have warning signs such as weight loss, loss of appetite, constant abdominal pain, gradually increasing , stools with blood, mucus, .. then you should consider endoscopy to check the stomach as well as the colon. If you don't have the warning signs, see your doctor for blood, stool and urine tests to look for signs of inflammation, infection, parasites, thyroid disease, diabetes, etc. .After making sure everything is normal, you should treat according to your doctor's instructions and adhere to a reasonable diet and lifestyle adjustment, the symptoms will improve gradually.
If you still have questions about stool such as diarrhea when treating gastroesophageal reflux disease with gastritis, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
