Answered by Master, Doctor Mai Vien Phuong - Department of Medical Examination & Internal Medicine, Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “Is HP infection dangerous? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
There are many types of H.pylori bacteria, from non-pathogenic strains to stomach ulcers or stomach cancer-causing strains. Therefore, a dangerous HP infection no longer depends on which strain of H.pylori bacteria you have.
The treatment of H.pylori bacteria is a long, persistent process, including many factors, the most important of which are lifestyle changes, antacids and antibiotics to eradicate H. pylori,..
Ideally, you should visit a gastroenterologist for specific advice.
If you still have questions about HP infection, you can go to a 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!
