Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a type of bacteria that infects the stomach lining, leading to conditions such as gastritis, peptic ulcers, and, in some cases, stomach cancer. The infection is commonly acquired in childhood and can be transmitted through contaminated food, water, or direct contact with an infected person. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, and loss of appetite. Diagnosis is typically made through breath tests, stool tests, or endoscopic biopsy. Treatment usually involves a combination of antibiotics and acid-reducing medications to eradicate the bacteria and heal the stomach lining.
