2. You burp a lot
According to a gastroenterologist, Elena A. Ivanina, DO, an infection caused by Helicobacter pylori can easily lead to gastritis. This infection releases toxins in your stomach that damage it. That’s why people infected with the bacteria Helicobacter pylori burp a lot.
Sadly, most people ignore this symptom. A study published in the Journal Gastroenterology discovered that H. pylori infect more than half of the entire world’s population. What’s even more concerning is the fact that H. pylori can cause cancer.
However, just like bloating, if your burping is caused by gastritis, it should be accompanied by additional symptoms like abdominal pain or heartburn.
