In diagnosis, electronic gastroscopy can be used to further clarify whether there are gastritis, gastric duodenal ulcer, and other diseases. In this case, timely sterilization treatment is needed, otherwise it can easily lead to acute and chronic gastritis, erosive gastritis, atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, gastric cancer, and other diseases. Currently, the quadruple sterilization therapy is recommended in clinical practice, including bismuth potassium citrate granules, proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole and rabeprazole, and antibiotics such as clarithromycin and amoxicillin. The general treatment course is 2 weeks.
