Gastrointestinal diseases refer to diseases involving the gastrointestinal tract,
Some different types of gastrointestinal disease are as, 


  • Oral disease
    : Even though anatomically part of the GI tract, diseases of the mouth are often not considered alongside other gastrointestinal diseases. By far the most common oral conditions are plaque-induced diseases 

  • Esophageal disease : Esophageal diseases include a spectrum of disorders affecting the esophagus. The most common condition of the esophagus in Western countries is gastrointestinal reflex disease, which in chronic forms is thought to result in changes to the epithelium of the esophagus, known as Barrett's esophagus.

  • Gastric disease : Gastric diseases refer to diseases affecting the stomach. Inflammation of the stomach by infection from any cause is called gastritis, and when including other parts of the gastrointestinal tract called gastroenteritis.
    When gastritis persists in a chronic state, it is associated with several diseases, including 
    atrophic gastritispyloric stenosis, and gastric cancer. Another common condition is gastric ulcerationpeptic ulcers. Ulceration erodes the gastric mucosa, which protects the tissue of the stomach from the stomach acids. Peptic ulcers are most commonly caused by a bacterial Helicobacter pylori infection
