What are the symptoms of Helicobacter pylori?
After Helicobacter pylori infection, many patients show no symptoms, while others may develop chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, and even gastric cancer as a result of the infection, manifesting symptoms such as upper abdominal pain, burping, acid reflux, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, and indigestion. Therefore, if you are infected with Helicobacter pylori and experience the above symptoms, it is recommended to undergo a gastroscopy to confirm the diagnosis. After a clear diagnosis, treatment can be tailored to the specific disease. A 14-day eradication therapy for Helicobacter pylori is recommended, involving a proton pump inhibitor, two antibiotics, and a bismuth agent, for a total treatment duration of 14 days. Dietary suggestions include eating divided meals and using serving chopsticks, which can significantly reduce the infection rate of Helicobacter pylori.
