Hi doctor,
I was diagnosed to have the H.pylori infection a year ago. I have taken several doses of antibiotics, but the symptoms did not get better. What could be the problem?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- The mere presence of Helicobacter pylori may not always be pathological. It can be endemic in certain areas.
- The treatment is required only if you are having gastritis or acid related disorders.
- Avoid taking long courses of antibiotics, as it is not needed for H.pylori.
- My advice to you in this regard would be the following:
- Modify your diet. Avoid spicy, acid promoting, reflux promoting foods, etc.
- Have regular physical activities.
- Remain stress-free.
- Consult a nearby gastroenterologist for annual follow-up, or if the symptoms worsen.
