Helicobacter pylori (HP) is a kind of spiral bacteria, its survival oxygen demand is 5%~8%, and its living environment is extremely demanding, but it is the only known microorganism that can survive in human stomach and has certain biological activity. Helicobacter pylori mostly grows in human stomach and duodenal mucosa, which is easy to induce inflammatory reaction, such as intestinal ulcer, chronic gastritis and even digestive tract cancer in severe cases. Some medical studies believe that Helicobacter pylori is one of the main pathogens that induce gastric cancer.

The following symptoms prove the possibility of Helicobacter pylori infection:

1, digestive tract symptoms

Helicobacter pylori can stimulate the stomach and intestinal mucosa, so it will show typical digestive symptoms, mainly indigestion. Patients with helicobacter pylori infection will show a feeling of fullness in the upper abdomen after meals, and even if they only eat a little food, they will also have symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating and acid reflux. If the inflammatory reaction of Helicobacter pylori is mainly intestinal tract, there will be symptoms such as irregular stool, irregular stool and so on.

2. Oral symptoms

Patients infected with Helicobacter pylori are prone to continue a large amount of gas in the gastrointestinal tract, which will creep up with the stomach and enter the mouth, resulting in obvious bad breath. Bad breath induced by Helicobacter pylori infection is different from oral malodor caused by oral diseases, which can be used as one of the criteria for clinical diagnosis.

3. Frequent hunger

Because helicobacter pylori infection can lead to stomach fullness, patients will involuntarily reduce food intake. Moreover, because their digestive ability and ability to extract energy and nutrition from food are affected, patients will have an energy gap, often showing obvious hunger, and some patients will have weight loss, physical fitness decline and even anemia symptoms in a short period of time. It is suggested that patients should seek medical treatment in time to rule out hyperthyroidism, diabetes and other factors before they can be diagnosed with Helicobacter pylori infection.

4. Drooling

Helicobacter pylori has a certain biological toxicity, which will affect the human nervous system. Therefore, patients may show symptoms of excessive secretion of outlet water, and patients with serious illness will involuntarily overflow their mouths. It is recommended that patients seek medical treatment in time, and whether there is Helicobacter pylori infection should be considered after excluding the influence of epilepsy, dementia, stroke and cerebral infarction.

Tips

From the above symptoms, we can know that most of the symptoms induced by Helicobacter pylori infection are common, so they are easily ignored by patients. It is suggested that everyone should be vigilant and seek medical examination in time when specific symptoms appear to reduce the risk of gastric cancer. In fact, many people have Helicobacter pylori in their bodies, but it has not yet invaded the human body. If the patient has no history of digestive system diseases and no family history of gastric cancer, the probability of Helicobacter pylori infection is very low.
