An ulcer in the stomach is called a gastric ulcer . An ulcer in the duodenum is called a duodenal ulcer. Together, ulcers of the stomach and duodenum are referred to as peptic ulcers. Most ulcers are erosions of the first layer of the inner lining. If the hole goes all the way through, this is called a perforation of the intestinal lining. This can cause shock and is a medical emergency. Ulcer - peptic; Ulcer - duodenal or gastric; Duodenal ulcer Normally, the lining of the stomach and small intestines have protection against the irritating acids produced in your stomach. For a variety of reasons, the protective mechanisms may become faulty, leading to a breakdown of the lining. This results in inflammation ( gastritis ) or an ulcer.

Stress does not cause ulcers. The cause of an ulcer is not always known. Ulcers can be caused by a bacterial infection. The bacterium is called helicobacter pylori (or h. pylori). The bacterial infection makes it harder for the body to produce mucus that protects the lining of the stomach and duodenum. Without the mucus protection, acid begins to eat away at the lining. Ulcers may form. Drugs like aspirin or ibuprofen can cause ulcers. Acetaminophen does not cause ulcers. Smoking cigarettes can lead to ulcers.

Extractions: Treating peptic ulcer disease Do you suffer from Peptic Ulcer Disease? Learn how to protect your and cope with the pain of ulcers. Peptic Ulcer Disease is the single most common disorder diagnosed in North America today. Men, women and children are equally affected by this painful, irritating condition. Quick treatment is key, since new research now suggests that repeated stomach ulcers have the capability of becoming malignant over time. The latest ulcer studies have proven that some suffer ulcers because of an overgrowth of bacteria. DEFINITION Ulcers are small erosions within the gastrointestinal tract. They are not contagious or cancerous growths. There are two basic types of ulcers: DUODENAL ULCERS are the most commonly diagnosed. They occur within one foot of the small intestine, just beyond the stomach, and are seen more frequently in male patients, though a significant number of women suffer duodenal ulcers, as well. GASTRIC ULCERS form inside the lining of the stomach and are especially painful. DUODENAL ULCER SYMPTOMS Burning, boring pain experienced before or in-between meals.

Together, ulcers of the stomach and duodenum are referred to as peptic ulcers and a person who has peptic ulcers is said to have peptic ulcer disease Most cases of peptic ulcer disease involve ulcers that are erosions of the first layer of the inner lining.

People of any age can get an ulcer and women are affected just as often as men. Over 25 million Americans will suffer from an ulcer at some point during their lifetime. The good news is that most ulcers are caused by an infection with the bacterium, Helicobacter pylori, and can be cured in about two weeks with antibiotics.

Extractions: Medical information for patients index search health books site map Peptic ulcer refers to an area of the stomach or duodenal lining which becomes eroded by the stomach acid. These are known as stomach and duodenal ulcers, collectively known as peptic ulcers. You may notice no symptoms although you have an ulcer, but frequently they are associated with indigestion or pain in the upper abdomen or even lower chest. This pain may be worse before or after eating and frequently wakes you in the early hours of the morning. The pain may go to the back or sometimes be perceived elsewhere. If an ulcer bleeds you may vomit blood or partially digested blood (which looks like coffee grounds) or pass black stools (melaena), which contain changed blood, when you go to the toilet. If any of these happen call the doctor immediately (even out of hours). Many factors make you more likely to have an ulcer. It often seems to run in families. Smoking increases the risk. Heavy drinking. Certain drugs eg aspirin and other anti-inflammatory drugs We now know that a large percentage of people who have ulcers have a germ (Helicobacter pylori) in their stomach which they probably picked up many years previously, which makes the ulcer more likely to occur and more difficult to heal.

Extractions: Peptic Ulcer Disease Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a very common ailment, affecting one out of eight persons in the United States. The causes of PUD have gradually become clear. With this understanding have come new and better ways to treat ulcers and even cure them. Anatomy and Function of the Stomach An ulcer is an open sore in the lining of the stomach or intestine, much like mouth or skin ulcers. Peptic ulcers are eventually caused by acid and pepsin, a digestive stomach enzyme. These ulcers can occur in the stomach, where they are called gastric ulcers. Or they can occur in the first portion of the intestine. These are called duodenal ulcers. "Peptic Ulcer" is the term used to describe either or both of these two types of ulcers. In the end, it is acid that causes the injury to the stomach or bowel lining. However, a revolutionary and startling recent discovery is that most peptic ulcers result from a stomach infection caused by the bacteria, Helicobacter pylori.

http://www.gicare.com/pated/edtgs04.htm

Extractions: A diet that avoids stomach irritants is for those patients who suffer from symptoms of peptic ulcer disease or non-ulcer dyspepsia. In peptic ulcer disease, the patient has one or more ulcers in the stomach or duodenum (the first part of the intestine beyond the stomach). Non-ulcer dyspepsia refers to these same symptoms but without the presence of an ulcer. These symptoms, which include discomfort or burning in the upper abdomen, often occur an hour or so after eating and may be relieved by milk, food, or antacids. In the past, diet was considered very important in treating ulcers. Now physicians know that foods do not actually cause an ulcer. There are a few foods, however, that can aggravate ulcer symptoms or delay healing. Nutrition Facts Depending on individual food selection, this diet meets the National Research Council's Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDA). Special Considerations Items most frequently associated with gastric discomfort include the following: black pepper, red or hot pepper, chili powder, caffeine, regular and decaffeinated coffee or tea, alcohol, cocoa, chocolate, cola beverages, citrus fruits and juices, fatty and fried foods, tomato products, and peppermint. These should be eliminated from the diet unless specifically allowed by the physician and/or dietitian. Additional adjustments may be made according to individual tolerances.
