Suggest Remedy For Helicobacter That Causes Tonsils To Block Air Path
i was diagnosed to have Helicpbracter, now i am on medication for 2 months but not getting well, i dont feel heart burn but i feel that my tonsils are blocking the air path to breath so i keep swallowing, which affects my sleeping>>>what do you recommend me to do?
Well they exist various remedies for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection which is a germ that basically affects the stomach but could also affect the entire gut. The treatment of H. pyroli involves either triple or quadruple therapy which involves use of: - Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as omeprazole, lansoprazole etc - Clarithromycin - Amoxicillin - Or Metronidazole Your doctor should be the one to decide on the combinations and the duration. If your tonsils persistently block your airway, then a surgical procedure to remove the tonsils (tonsillectomy) will be performed after surgical evaluation by a surgeon. So if the symptoms persist, I suggest a surgical consult as soon as possible.
hope this helps Dr. Nsah
