What does it mean if you have a positive Helicobacter pylori antibody?

Patient's question:

When checking leave time, it was found that there was a positive test result for Helicobacter pylori antibodies. What is the matter if there are no special symptoms?

Doctor's answer:

Helicobacter pylori (HP) is a gastrointestinal bacterium closely related to chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric cancer. It is primarily transmitted through the consumption of unhygienic food, as the saying goes, "disease enters from the mouth." Since Helicobacter pylori is the cause of chronic gastritis, patients must avoid excessive mental tension and worry, maintain a cheerful mood, and prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of Helicobacter pylori.
