3. Indigestion
Another term for indigestion is dyspepsia. A person who is infected with H pylori may experience nausea, heartburn, upper abdominal pain, belching, and a feeling of fullness. This is a common problem that is often caused by gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer disease, or gastritis.
A person who suffers from frequent indigestion may not realize what the exact cause of it is. Indigestion is often a sign that something else is wrong in the body. It can be a symptom of an H pylori infection. It may also be a symptom of cancer.
People who are over the age of 55 and experience dyspepsia or indigestion that is rather new should talk to their primary care provider in order to rule out conditions that could be harmful to the rest of the body. It is important to note that frequent indigestion is not normal at any age and should be discussed with your doctor.
