🔥 What Causes Stomach Ulcers?
Stomach ulcers are sores that develop in the lining of the stomach or the first part of the small intestine. While many people think stress or spicy foods are the main causes, the most common causes are actually:
🩺 Infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacteria.
💊 Frequent or long-term use of pain relievers such as ibuprofen, aspirin, or naproxen.
🚬 Smoking, which can slow healing and increase the risk of ulcers.
🍺 Excessive alcohol consumption, which can irritate and damage the stomach lining.
If left untreated, stomach ulcers can lead to complications such as bleeding, severe pain, or even a hole in the stomach lining.
If you’re experiencing persistent stomach pain, bloating, nausea, heartburn, or unexplained vomiting, don’t ignore the signs. Early diagnosis and proper treatment can help you feel better and prevent complications.
