The main danger of H. pylori is that long-term infection may cause gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, and many other diseases to occur.
The results of H. pylori infection can be mild or severe. In mild cases, there may not be any symptoms, while in severe cases, there may be bloating, nausea, vomiting, bad taste in the mouth, etc. It may also be accompanied by gastritis, peptic ulcers, and even cause gastric cancer. In addition, gastric ulcers may cause complications such as bleeding and perforation.
Those who are clearly infected with H. pylori should follow the doctor’s instructions for eradication treatment. Currently, the “four-combination drug therapy” is generally recommended as the main program for empirical eradication of H. pylori. The eradication of H. pylori effectively prevents ulcer recurrence and reduces the occurrence of gastric cancer. In addition, it can quickly eliminate the active inflammation of the gastric mucosa.
In addition, it is recommended to pay attention to healthy diet, abstain from smoking and alcohol, avoid drinking strong tea or coffee, and ensure sufficient sleep to improve one’s immunity. Under the guidance of doctor, use medication reasonably and review regularly.
