What is peptic ulcer?
Ulcer simply means 'wound'.
Pepsin is the digestive juice of the stomach that helps in the digestion of non-food. Stomach continuously produces hydrochloric acid to digest food. The stomach has a thick lining of mucus to prevent this acid from burning the stomach itself. A joint reaction of acid and pepsin breaks through this lining due to long-term excess acidity and creates lesions on the inner wall of the stomach, called peptic ulcers. In most cases, this disease is caused by a bacterium called Helicobacter pylori.
What happens if left untreated:
- Ulcers will bleed from the wound
- Perforation in stomach or intestinal wall
- Infection
- Digestive disturbances
- Inability to pass food from stomach to intestines
- Weight gain or loss
- After 10-15 years the end result can be cancer
