HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand this if you have gastritis and you are taking medicine for this, once you finished the course of medicine then this will cure your gastritis, then you have to take care for your hygiene, the infection can occurs again and for that you have to find out the cause of this, hope this information helps you have nice day.
