Abstract

Gastritis is a common gastrointestinal condition characterized by inflammation of the stomach lining ie. mucosa. The demanding academic environment, irregular eating habits, stress, and lifestyle factors prevalent among medical students can increase their susceptibility to gastritis.

This article explores the knowledge and practice regarding risk factors of gastritis among undergraduate medical students, focusing on the factors that contribute to its development. Also provides an overview of the risk factors, symptoms, and potential consequences of gastritis among medical students at Tashkent medical academy. The findings emphasise the importance of preventive measures and lifestyle modifications to reduce the risk of gastritis in this population.
