What is Peptic Ulcers?

Peptic ulcers are painful sores that develop in the stomach lining or small intestine due to excessive stomach acid. The primary causes include bacterial infections, excessive use of NSAIDs, and lifestyle factors. Symptoms range from mild discomfort to severe pain, often worsening on an empty stomach. If untreated, ulcers can lead to complications such as internal bleeding and perforation. Proper medical intervention, dietary adjustments, and medications help manage and heal peptic ulcers effectively.

Causes of Peptic Ulcers

Peptic ulcers primarily develop due to an imbalance in stomach acid production and protective mechanisms. The most common cause is Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, which weakens the stomach lining. Frequent use of NSAIDs like ibuprofen and aspirin can also erode the protective layer. Other contributing factors include excessive alcohol consumption, smoking, high stress levels, and spicy food intake. Genetics and chronic diseases may also increase susceptibility to ulcers, making early diagnosis and treatment crucial.

Diagnosis of Peptic Ulcers

Doctors diagnose peptic ulcers using a combination of medical history, physical examination, and tests. Endoscopy allows direct visualization of ulcers, while breath, blood, and stool tests detect H. pylori infection. Imaging tests like barium swallow X-rays may be used for further assessment. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential to prevent complications such as internal bleeding or perforation. If symptoms persist, seeking timely medical consultation can lead to effective treatment and management.

Symptoms of Peptic Ulcers?

Peptic ulcer symptoms vary but often include burning stomach pain that worsens between meals or at night. Other symptoms include bloating, nausea, vomiting, and appetite changes. In severe cases, ulcers can cause black stools, vomiting blood, and unexplained weight loss. If untreated, complications like stomach perforation and internal bleeding may occur. Recognizing symptoms early and seeking medical attention helps prevent further complications and ensures proper treatment.

How are Peptic Ulcers Treated?

Treatment for peptic ulcers depends on their cause. Antibiotics eliminate H. pylori infections, while proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and H2 blockers reduce stomach acid. Antacids offer temporary relief from symptoms, and cytoprotective agents help protect the stomach lining. Lifestyle changes such as avoiding NSAIDs, reducing alcohol intake, quitting smoking, and maintaining a balanced diet also aid recovery. In severe cases, surgery may be required to repair complications like perforation or obstruction.

1. Persistent Stomach Pain

If you have ongoing burning or gnawing stomach pain that doesn’t improve, it may indicate a worsening ulcer requiring medical attention.

2. Black or Tarry Stools

Dark, sticky stools can signal internal bleeding caused by an ulcer, making it crucial to seek immediate medical evaluation and treatment.

3. Vomiting Blood

Throwing up blood or material resembling coffee grounds indicates severe bleeding in the digestive tract, requiring urgent medical care to prevent serious complications.

4. Unexplained Weight Loss

Rapid, unintentional weight loss without dietary changes can suggest ulcer-related complications, requiring a doctor’s assessment for proper diagnosis and treatment.

5. Frequent Nausea or Vomiting

Persistent nausea or recurrent vomiting may be a sign of an obstructed or worsening ulcer, necessitating prompt medical intervention to prevent further damage.
