H Pylori - Link to mouth Ulcers

Hi. Is there any link to mouth ulcers  in relation to diagnosed H Pylori patients ? Thanks. 

  • Hi there and thanks for the post

    Whilst stomach ulcers are mostly linked to h pylori sometimes mouth ulcers ( cankers) can also be triggered by this.

    Usually successful treatment for H pylori will resolve any symptoms caused by the h pylori.

    If however you have mouth ulcers that are ongoing you should get them checked by your doctor just to be on the safe side.

    I hope this helps.

    Best wishes
