    No public chopsticks are used. In addition, it also depends on whether the person who is positive for Helicobacter pylori is in the active period, has not undergone drugs**, and the amount of bacteria in the body is relatively large, which is easy to infect others. It also depends on the person's own resistance, if a person's resistance is strong.

    Helicobacter pylori is very contagious, and once infected with Helicobacter pylori, it will easily cause some complications and endanger human health, but there are many patients who do not know what causes Helicobacter pylori infection, and the main reasons are as follows:

    1. Sharing meals: The main way of transmission of Helicobacter pylori is oral transmission, as long as one member of the family is infected with Helicobacter pylori, it is likely that the whole family will be infected. There is also a marked increase in the chances of infection among those who eat out regularly.

    2. Unclean diet: Many people like to eat three-ripe steak, or eat hot pot before the meat is cooked, which greatly increases the chance of exposure to Helicobacter pylori. Recommended reading: What are the symptoms of Helicobacter pylori infection.

    3. Spleen deficiency: uncontrolled diet and overwork can easily lead to spleen deficiency, and the infection rate of Helicobacter pylori is closely related to spleen deficiency. Most patients with chronic gastric disease with spleen deficiency have Helicobacter pylori infection, because the local defense function of the gastric mucosa in such patients is defective, which provides an opportunity for Helicobacter pylori to invade.

    4. Kissing: Scientific studies have found that Helicobacter pylori is present in saliva. And kissing between lovers is the most direct way to exchange saliva.

    Helicobacter pylori is a pathogenic bacterium that lives in our stomach and duodenum. After this bacterial infection, its metabolites will cause a kind of damage to the gastric mucosa or duodenal mucosa, and the injury may cause some corresponding symptoms, mainly manifested as discomfort in the upper abdomen, abdominal pain, heartburn, acid reflux belching, and some patients will have bad breath. If it does, be sure to go to the hospital for some tests.

    It is essentially a bacterium, a gram-negative bacillus, able to survive in a strong acidic environment in the stomach, is the only bacteria found to be able to survive in the stomach, often in the pyloric part of the stomach activities, the shape is spiral, hence the name Helicobacter pylori.

    Most patients with Helicobacter pylori infection have no symptoms or complications, but about 5% to 20% develop peptic ulcer, 5% to 10% develop dyspepsia, and about 1% develop gastric malignancy.

    It's not uncommon to hear the question: If I eat with someone with H. pylori, will I be contagious? So if you carry the dishes and chopsticks used by a Helicobacter pylori patient, and use them by another person after a few hours, will it still be infectious?

    To know the answer, you have to understand what is Helicobacter pylori? What are the good lifestyle habits to establish to prevent H. pylori infection? Next, the author will talk about it in detail.

    What is Helicobacter pylori?

    Helicobacter pylori is transmitted through oral-oral transmission, fecal-oral transmission and unclean food transmission. Studies have shown that human-to-human transmission within a household may be related to close contact of family members, genetic susceptibility to HP infection shared by family members, exposure of family members to a common source of HP infection, and similar childhood socioeconomic status between spouses.

    At present, studies have proved that Helicobacter pylori is closely related to gastritis, gastric ulcers, gastric cancer and other diseases. In vitro culture studies showed that the environment for in vitro culture of Helicobacter pylori was: low oxygen, high CO2, optimal humidity of more than 90%, and suitable temperature of about 37.

    Under normal air conditions, Helicobacter pylori can survive on ordinary surfaces for no more than 90 minutes.

    What are the good lifestyle habits to establish to prevent H. pylori infection?

    If you have a H. pylori patient in your family, it is important to establish good lifestyle habits in order to better stop the spread of H. pylori. It is now summarized in four sentences, please keep in mind: wash your hands before meals, abide by the male chopsticks and female spoons, disinfect the tableware after use, and improve the baby's feeding.

    All in all, paying attention to food hygiene in all aspects will definitely take care of our stomach!

    Conclusion

    To sum up, if you eat with a patient with Helicobacter pylori, if you do not implement a separate meal system, there is a high probability that it will be infectious; Then the dishes and chopsticks used by the H. pylori patient are left for a few hours to be used by another person, because of the limited survival conditions after exposure to air, resulting in a short survival time, so it is unlikely to be infectious. If you want to prevent Helicobacter pylori, developing good lifestyle habits is the key, such as once infected with Helicobacter pylori, there is no need to panic, find a professional gastroenterologist, first see if you need **, if necessary, and then take the medicine according to the doctor's instructions.

    If the infected person has just finished using the dishes and chopsticks, and others continue to use them, there is a possibility of infection, but it is not necessarily infectious. In another case, after the infected person has finished using the dishes and chopsticks, they have been left for a few hours, and others continue to use them, and the chance of infection with Helicobacter pylori in this case is actually relatively low. This is because Helicobacter pylori is special in that it is a "microaerophilic bacteria", it is difficult for Helicobacter pylori to survive when there is enough oxygen, in normal air, Helicobacter pylori survives for less than 4 hours, and if the infected person has used the dishes and chopsticks for more than 4 hours, there will be very few bacteria on it.

    If it has been washed, there is little chance that the Helicobacter pylori on the dishes and chopsticks will survive, so even if someone else uses it, the chance of infection is low.
