Do you really understand the symptoms of Helicobacter pylori?

Helicobacter pylori is a relatively common bacterium that is highly contagious. It is usually transmitted through oral feeding, kissing, etc. Once infected, the patient will show symptoms such as acid reflux, heartburn, and pain. Some people may also suffer from bad breath, chronic gastritis and other diseases. In this case, timely treatment must be sought.

1. Clinical symptoms

1) The main symptoms of Helicobacter pylori infection are acid reflux, heartburn, stomach pain and bad breath. This is mainly because Helicobacter pylori induces the crazy secretion of gastrin, which causes acid reflux and heartburn. In patients with gastric ulcer disease, Helicobacter pylori causes the main symptom of stomach pain. One of the most direct causes of bad breath is Helicobacter pylori.

2) Helicobacter pylori can cause chronic gastritis. The main clinical manifestations include: upper abdominal discomfort, dull pain, and sometimes belching, acid reflux, nausea, and vomiting. The course of the disease is relatively slow, but it is prone to recurrence.

3) After being infected with Helicobacter pylori, patients produce a variety of pathogenic factors, which cause damage to the gastric mucosa. The occurrence of clinical diseases is diverse, and patients often experience acid reflux, belching, bloating, etc., which are many times more common in patients infected with Helicobacter pylori than in patients not infected with Helicobacter pylori.

4) Helicobacter pylori infection sometimes does not have particularly obvious symptoms. In this case, the presence of Helicobacter pylori infection is usually determined through examination. Helicobacter pylori, a pathogenic bacterium, can easily induce gastrointestinal diseases.

2. Transmission channels

Transmission route 1:

Oral transmission: China's conservative feeding method is that parents chew the food into pieces before feeding it to their children. If the parents suffer from chronic gastritis, the germs will be contaminated to the children through oral feeding.

Transmission channel 2:

Kiss between lovers: Helicobacter pylori is widely present in the saliva and dental plaque of infected people. Contact with the saliva of an infected person or eating food contaminated with Helicobacter pylori can cause infection.
