The stomach is a delicate aspect of the body. An Ulcer is said to occur when a sore develops on the stomach, oesophagus or small intestine.
Stomach ulcers occur when stomach acid damages the lining of the digestive tract.
The most common symptom of stomach ulcer is a burning pain in the centre Of the abdomen. Interestingly, stomach ulcers may not always be painful as some people may just experience symptoms such as indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux or feeling sick.
Foods that can soothe an ulcer include apples, pears, oatmeals and foods that are high in fibre.
To treat a stomach ulcer, medical doctors prescribe antacids or medications that block acid production and support the healing of the stomach.
Other treatments for stomach ulcers include using medication that protects the lining of the stomach and small intestine.
Research has proven that stomach ulcers could be treated in a few months by using the right course of antibiotics and medication known as the proton pump inhibitor.
