Hi I was diagnosed with Helicobacter Pylori infection two years back and I am getting similar symptoms now. Which is the best way to treat the bacteria

Hello Although symptoms may be similar re-infection with H.Pylori is uncommon (2%) if it was eradicated 2 years back. I would suggest you to test for H pylori - endoscopy + rapid urease test or stool antigen test before you think about treatment. You may start with PPI for the time being for symptomatic relief.
