Helobacter pylori infection is one of the most common gastrointestinal diseases in modern people. According to years of medical research, this bacteria is also the driving force behind chronic gastritis, gastrointestinal ulcers and digestive tract cancer, and the threat to health cannot be underestimated.
But at the same time, studies have found that more than 60% of people around the world have different degrees of infection. Although most of the symptoms are mild, they should also be taken with sufficient attention. Those who have not yet been infected should also pay attention to reducing the chance of cross-infection in life and develop the habit of keeping themselves clean. Generally speaking, when you are "entangled" by Helicobacter pylori, you will have 5 symptoms. If you have one, seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
1. Frequent indigestion
According to clinical statistics, more than 80% of Helicobacter pylori infected people will experience indigestion, typical manifestations include intestinal roar, diarrhea and constipation, and gastrointestinal flatulence. This is because after Helicobacter pylori enters the digestive tract, it will destroy the body's original intestinal colony population, thereby affecting substance absorption and digestive fluid secretion, which will lead to indigestion and poor bowel movements.
2. Gastric acid reflux
After infection with Helicobacter pylori, the human stomach mucosa may be damaged, which will lead to excessive gastric acid release and symptoms of reflux against the digestive tract. In this type of condition, patients will often experience heartburn, nausea, , poor appetite, etc., and may also experience a weight plummeting in a short period of time. We need to pay more attention to this in normal times.
3. Frequent hiccups
After being infected, the human digestive function will be affected to varying degrees, which will cause the food to stay in the stomach and intestines to continue to extend, and the amount of gas produced will also increase accordingly. Too much intestinal gas will cause frequent hiccups and it will be difficult to control them through your own will. Therefore, if you find that you hiccup frequently for several days in a row, you should go to the hospital for relevant examinations in time and do not delay.
4. Bad breath
When food is stored in the intestine for a long time, it will continuously produce sulfur-containing gas and ammonia under the action of various bacterial groups. It often has a strong irritating odor, which will aggravate the bad breath. You can take a deep breath after rinsing your mouth and then feel whether you have obvious bad breath. If necessary, you can also ask someone close to you to help you smell it, so that you may get more accurate feedback.
5. Nausea and vomiting
Helicobacter pylori is a bacteria that prefers acidic environment, so it can survive in the stomach with relatively low pH. In addition, the bacteria also have the ability to stimulate gastric acid secretion. Friends infected with it will frequently experience nausea and vomiting. In severe cases, they may even suddenly experience gastric ulcers and stomach perforation, which is of great harm to health.
Moreover, Helicobacter pylori survives in the body for a long time and spreads quickly. If no timely response measures are taken in the early stage, it will be difficult to eradicate it through daily means in the future. However, with the development of modern medicine, if you think that Helicobacter pylori has had a serious impact on your own health, you can also ask the doctor for help. Most bacteria can be removed after 2 weeks of surgery and drug treatment.
In addition, people with gastric cancer patients in the family should pay more attention to their daily dietary health to avoid being parasitized by bacteria.
