Hi,
Fundal erosion can be due to faulty diet, psychological stressor some times to gastric infection by H. pylori. Treatment consists of dietary management&antacid medications. If not relieved by these, the H Pylori infection needs to be diagnosed by pathological test and treated with suitable antibiotic along with routine management.
Sigmoid colitis is an autoimmune / infective or genetic condition causing inflammation and ulcerations of sigmoid colon. Mostly with specific treatment. It gets controlled in 8 days. Some cases may get extended up to few weeks. You should consult a gastroenterologist for detailed examination,needful investigations and specific management of both the condition.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
