What is a stomach ULCER?
Stomach ulcers are painful sores that can be found in the stomach lining or small intestine. Stomach ulcers are the most visible sign of peptic ulcer disease. They occur when the thick layer of mucus that protects your stomach from digestive juices is reduced, thus enabling the digestive acids to eat away at the lining tissues of the stomach.
Stomach ulcers are easily cured, but they can become severe without proper treatment.
What causes stomach ulcers?
Stomach ulcers aren’t necessarily caused by one single factor. The decrease in the stomach’s mucus lining that leads to an ulcer is usually caused by one of the following:
1. An infection with the bacterium Helicobacter
pylori (H. pylori)
2. Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as
aspirin and ibuprofen
3. Excess acid (hyperacidity) in the stomach,
which may be related to genetics, lifestyle
(stress, smoking), and certain foods.
4. Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, a rare disease
that makes the body produce excess
stomach acid
Certain factors and behaviors can put you at higher risk for developing stomach ulcers:
- Smoking
- Family history of stomach ulcers
- Excessive consumption of alcohol
- Frequent use of steroids (such as those for
treating asthma)
- Hypercalcemia (overproduction of calcium)
- Family history of stomach ulcers
being over 50 years old.
Symptoms of stomach ulcers
