Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Helicobacter pylori gastritis is inflammation of the lining of the stomach caused by this bacterium, which lodges in the gastric mucosa and can persist for a long time without major discomfort.
Common symptoms: burning or pain in the upper abdomen, a feeling of fullness, nausea, and discomfort after eating.
How it is connected: this bacterium is one of the most common causes of gastric inflammation and, over time, can be associated with other digestive disorders.
Which specialist treats it? The gastroenterologist is the right professional to study the stomach and identify the presence of the bacterium; the general practitioner can also guide the initial evaluation. If digestive discomfort recurs, it is worth consulting in a timely manner.
