11. You have anemia

Those who are over 40 and tend to struggle with indigestion and anemia, should see a doctor right away. Another thing caused by gastritis is anemia. Dr. Bhatia recommends getting an upper-gastrointestinal endoscopy to see if the anemia is caused by erosive gastritis.

This is actually the rarest type of gastritis you could possibly have. It often leads to ulcers and people usually get diagnosed when they spot blood in the stool. So, if, you’re also experiencing weakness, loss of appetite, vomiting, nausea, and a burning sensation in the stomach, go visit a gastroenterologist immediately.
