Hello doctor,
Every time I have a stomachache, I go to the toilet and there are many worms. So the doctor asked me if I had a stomach ache and worms that were infected with HP? Thank you.

Hi friends,
With the question "Correct pain when passing out, is the helminth infected with HP? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Intestinal helminth infection and HP are 2 different diseases, so intestinal helminth infection does not mean HP infection. HP is usually transmitted through eating, contaminated food or through contact with the saliva of an infected person such as deep kissing. If you have worms in the bowels, it means you have an intestinal worm infection and need to be treated with antiparasitic drugs such as Albendazol.
If you want to check for HP, you need to do other tests such as gastroscopy, breath test or look for HP antigen in stool. These tests can all be done at Vinmec Hospital, you can come and get tested here.
If you still have questions about abdominal pain and worms, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
