Patient's question:

What is the reason for a positive result in the rapid test for Helicobacter pylori using anti-Hp urease antibody?

Doctor's answer:

Here is just a reminder that you have Helicobacter pylori infection. This bacterium mainly causes harm to the stomach and is commonly found in gastritis and gastric ulcers, requiring treatment. The main medications are amoxicillin and omeprazole. In addition to standard treatment for Helicobacter pylori, patients also need to pay attention to their diet, such as eating light meals and avoiding spicy foods. At the same time, patients should also be careful about choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis to obtain good treatment results.
