I have frequent stomach pains. When I take the drug it is fine when I stop - two days is enough and my stomach feels up again. I've been doing some general research - it's okay. Abdominal ultrasound is also normal.
From the submitted description, one may suspect peptic ulcer disease in the stomach and / or duodenum. An important factor contributing to the emergence of this disease and the recurrence of ailments is the presence of bacteria called Helicobacter pylori. It is a bacterium present in nearly 90% of people suffering from peptic ulcer disease. Although its existence was discovered in 1875, it was not until 1983 that scientists established the role of Helicobacter pylori in diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. The presence of bacteria in the body can be detected by blood tests or with the help of a breath test (you can buy the test kit at the pharmacy). Antibiotic treatment is essential if bacteria are present. Sometimes, in addition to the Helicobacter pylori test, it is necessary to perform gastroscopy. The family doctor or gastroenterologist should decide on the scope of the tests necessary for a detailed diagnosis and effective treatment. In addition to taking medications prescribed by a doctor, it is helpful to improve your he alth by eating regularly, avoiding spicy and acidic foods, as well as foods high in fat. It is also important to keep your teeth he althy and not to smoke. I wish you good he alth.
