Patient's question:
Today, I was chatting with a colleague (this colleague also has a bad stomach, often feeling bloated and pressure, and has not undergone thorough examination or treatment, nor does he know if he is infected with HP). His saliva, in the form of droplets, landed on my mouth! At that time, I didn't swallow! I just wiped it off with my finger and then licked my lips with my tongue, spat out some saliva! Later, I looked up information and found that HP can be transmitted through droplets! What is the probability of saliva transmitting Helicobacter pylori?Doctor's answer:
In your case, if it's Helicobacter pylori, it is contagious. You need to be cautious about this. It's best to use medication to stabilize the condition. This requires stabilizing the symptoms, and then there shouldn't be any further issues. Helicobacter pylori is a disease that is not easy to cure. Friends who are patients should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism, as only this can boost their confidence in fighting Helicobacter pylori.
