Hello,
With the question “Is acute reflux esophagitis completely cured? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, gastritis is a fairly common disease. The disease can be caused by many different causes, but the two most common causes are HP bacteria or stress.
Currently there are many methods to treat this disease including medication and surgery if drug therapy is not responding. The disease can be stable after 1 course of standard treatment 8 - 12 weeks but can recur if you have re-infection with HP bacteria or have an inappropriate lifestyle.
You should consult with a gastroenterologist for advice on the most suitable treatment for you.
If you still have questions about grade A reflux esophagitis, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
