Hello

Gastritis can be due to so many causes,stress is one of them. If the condition persists endoscopy may be needed to rule out any ulcer.
Although the main treatment is acid reducing agents like pantoprazole/rabeprazole/esomeprazole, but sometimes helicobactor pylori(HP) kit may be needed if there is an HP infection.For stress councelling and antidepressent/antianxiety medication may be needed.
Change in diet is also needed like avoidens of spicy,oily foods with intake of plenty of water.
I would suggest you to consult a physician for proper evaluation and management.
