The medical term for an abnormal condition of the stomach is gastropathy. Gastropathy refers to a general term used to describe a wide range of diseases and conditions that affect the stomach lining (mucosa), causing inflammation, erosion, or other structural abnormalities. It can manifest with various symptoms such as abdominal pain, indigestion, nausea, vomiting, or changes in bowel habits. Gastropathy can have different causes, including infections, autoimmune disorders, drug side effects, alcohol abuse, and certain chronic medical conditions.
