"If you are infected with Helicobacter pylori, you should use toothpaste that is anti-Helicobacter pylori!"
Uncle Wang is 63 years old this year, and he is in good health in normal times. However, some time ago, he always felt uncomfortable in his stomach. At first, he thought his stomach was uncomfortable because he had eaten bad things, so Uncle Wang went to the pharmacy to buy some medicine for diarrhea.
Before we knew it, three days passed, and Uncle Wang found that his stomach was still uncomfortable, and compared with before, the symptoms did not significantly relieve it. In desperation, Uncle Wang went to the hospital for treatment.
After arriving at the hospital, the doctor learned about Mr. Wang’s condition and suggested that he have gastroscopy and and do a blowing experiment. Uncle Wang felt that since he had come to the hospital, he would listen to the doctor. Then, Uncle Wang performed gastroscopy and air blowing experiments. After the examination results came out, it showed that chronic gastritis was combined with Helicobacter pylori infection.
Doctor told Mr. Wang: Helicobacter pylori is relatively stubborn. If you want to kill it, you need to insist on taking medicine! Uncle Wang felt that taking medicine was not good for his health, so he simply did not ask the doctor to prescribe medicine. After returning home, Uncle Wang told his wife about his situation. After learning about the situation, my wife said the sentence at the beginning of the article to Mr. Wang. Uncle Wang thought his wife's method could be tried, so he bought toothpaste against Helicobacter pylori.
Objectively speaking, the high incidence of gastric cancer in my country is indeed closely related to Helicobacter pylori. In order to give everyone more understanding and understanding of Helicobacter pylori, today the doctor will have a good idea to talk to you about the relevant knowledge.
1. Research has found that Helicobacter pylori is the culprit of gastric cancer in my country!
Authoritative medical journal "The Lancet" released a study in 2021. The study pointed out that Helicobacter pylori is the culprit of gastric cancer in my country!
Speaking of this, some friends may feel confused: How could Helicobacter pylori become the culprit of gastric cancer? To facilitate everyone's understanding, let's first learn about Helicobacter pylori.
Helicobacter pylori is a bacteria that has a spiral shape, and it is also a bacteria that can survive in the stomach for a long time. We all know that there is a lot of stomach acid in the stomach, and the acidity of stomach acid is relatively high. If stomach acid drips on your hands, there will be a significant burning sensation. Therefore, most bacteria are killed after entering the stomach.
Helobacter pylori can live in the stomach. On the one hand, Helicobacter pylori has flagella, which can push Helicobacter pylori forward so that it can pass through the mucus layer of the stomach and enter the surface of the gastric mucosa, so that it can avoid the pursuit of gastric acid. On the other hand, Helicobacter pylori can produce urea enzyme, which can decompose urea in the stomach to produce ammonia . Ammonia can neutralize gastric acid, thereby reducing the acidity of gastric acid near Helicobacter pylori, so that the acidity near Helicobacter pylori is not as strong.
Helicobacter pylori was listed as a first-class carcinogen by World Health Organization at a very early stage, which means that there is strong evidence that Helicobacter pylori has carcinogenic effects.
Helobacter pylori is carcinogenic mainly because it can cause chronic atrophic gastritis. The development of gastric cancer generally goes through four stages, namely atrophic gastritis , intestinal epithelial metaplasia, intraepithelial neoplasia , and gastric cancer. Some later studies in also proved that eradication of Helicobacter pylori can significantly reduce the risk of gastric cancer. This is mainly because eradicating Helicobacter pylori can block the conversion of gastric mucosa from chronic non-atrophic gastritis to chronic atrophic gastritis.
Oral transmission includes a lot of content, such as not using public dishes and chopsticks for kissing and dinner parties, and feeding infants and young children with their mouths. At the same time, if the saliva of people infected with Helicobacter pylori contaminates tableware or food, then is used by others or eaten by them and then infected is also a means of oral transmission.
Fecal oral pathway, as the name suggests, is a way for the infected person's feces to directly or indirectly contaminate food, and these foods are infected after being eaten by others. For the sake of everyone's understanding, here are examples. A certain person who cooks is infected with Helicobacter pylori. When this person goes to the toilet, his hands may be infected with Helicobacter pylori. If the person does not thoroughly clean his hands before going to cook, it may contaminate the food. When people eat this contaminated food, they may be infected with Helicobacter pylori.
Among the people, there are many ways to kill the pyloric spiral, but most of these are useless. Take garlic for example. Although it contains antibacterial ingredients, it almost cannot play a role after it enters the stomach. The anti-Herrelic pylori on the market also did not completely kill Helicobacter pylori.
At present, in order to eradicate the pyloric spiral, the clinical practice is mainly 4-link therapy, namely two antibiotics + bismuth agent + a proton pump inhibitor.
Commonly used antibiotics include amoxicillin , clarithromycin, tetracycline , lyserol , levofloxacin , etc. Commonly used bismuth agents include bismuth potassium citrate , bismuth pectin, etc. Commonly used proton pump inhibitors mainly include omeprazole , esomeprazole , lansoprazole, rabeprazole , pantoprazole , etc. Which medicine to choose for needs to be carried out under the guidance of a doctor or pharmacist, and you must not take the medicine yourself. The time for taking should be 10 to 15 days. For the specific dosage and method of taking, please refer to the instructions.
❷ Regular review and prevention of reinfection:
After the treatment is over, the medication needs to be stopped for 4 weeks and then the review is reviewed. The purpose of the review is mainly to clarify whether Helicobacter pylori has been completely eradicated. If treatment fails, a second treatment can be performed under the guidance of a doctor. #Health2022#
After confirming that Helicobacter pylori is eradicated, we also need to pay attention to preventing reinfection. The specific measures mainly include using public chopsticks for dinner, avoiding chewing food to feed the child, minimizing the number of times you go out, paying attention to hand hygiene, and taking separate meals.
