Gastritis is the inflammation of the mucosa (lining) of the stomach. The mucosal layer contains some mucous glands which produce a lubricating and protecting fluid called mucous that protects the stomach lining from the harsh acidic environment. Due to some causes, this lining is disrupted and inflamed, resulting in gastritis that causes the symptoms of gastric pain and burning, nausea, bloating, etc. The treatment requires eliminating the cause and some medicines that control acid production, protect against acid and provide relief.
