Understanding Helicobacter Pylori (H. Pylori) Infections
Helicobacter pylori is a common bacteria affecting the stomach, often leading to ulcers, gastritis, and other digestive issues. It spreads through contaminated food, water, or close contact. Symptoms may include nausea, abdominal pain, and bloating, but many infections remain asymptomatic. Diagnosis involves breath, stool, blood tests, or endoscopy. Treatment typically includes antibiotics and acid reduction medications. Preventive measures, like good hygiene and safe water intake, are vital. Early diagnosis and proper treatment help manage the infection and prevent complications.
