Why I have frequent stomach pain after H. pylori infection?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am a 21 year old female. Three years ago, I was hospitalized due to an H.pylori infection. Ever since, I regularly suffer from stomach pain, like once every three to five months. Today, I have a fever due to an upset stomach, and I noticed that when I stand up, my stomach hurts more.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  • You may be having an intermittent acute gastritis or acid injury of the stomach.
  • Hope you have been treated for H.pylori once.
  • Do not worry. This is a common minor medical condition. It can be precipitated by stress, a particular diet, etc.
  • I would recommend the following.
  1. Regularise your diet. Take frequent short feeds.
  2. Avoid keeping your stomach empty.
  3. Minimise spicy foods and aerated drinks.
  4. You can take Pantoprazole or Omeprazole tablets once or twice a day, 30 minutes before food when you experience discomfort. Take these medicines for three to five days. Do not take it for long.

Please consider a detailed consultation if needed so that I can guide you further. Good luck.
