Published 2021-04-07
Peptic Ulcer Disease (PUD) is a disease involving ulceration of the gastrointestinal mucosa, often involving the stomach (gastric ulcers) and the first part of the small intestine – duodenum (duodenal ulcers). PUD can be caused by a variety of causes, of which infection with helicobacter pylori and chronic use of NSAIDs are the most common causes. The ulceration can cause a variety of signs and symptoms, which slightly differ between gastric and duodenal ulcers. In this lesson, we discuss these signs and symptoms, including why they occur, when they occur, and what makes them better and worse. We also discuss some complications of peptic ulcer disease, including warning/alarm symptoms.

I had an ulcer for 7 years before a doctor took me seriously. In that time I had a full hysterectomy in my 30’s and was also accused of being addicted to opiates because they didn’t think anything was wrong with me. After my GP retired and I had a new doc he sent me to a surgeon who immediately ordered a scope and then found a duodenal ulcer. I now carry the frequent flyer opiate addict due to doctors not taking me seriously and I am not! In fact I am never in the ER anymore since being properly diagnosed and treated. So doctors, no matter what you think is going on, please take your patients seriously!

Appreciate the share! To add to this, Gut health is so important for overall health! A survey from 2018 of 71,000 Americans found that 61% had at least 1 bothersome gut issue! The most common gut symptom was acid reflux or GERD, then abdominal pain, then bloating.

I have some of the symptoms contains in your subject about Peptic ulcer. I have heartburn started few years ago & it worsened when I have strained my left upper back last January. I still have a slight back pain but my heartburn really gets severe. I started to take meds. but it didn’t really help but diet does help a little. I’m having a endoscopy soon & I hope it will show whatever is going on in my stomach. My lifestyle was really change now. It impacted my activities, my eating, my sleeping. Still trying to be positive to avoid stress but sometimes I can’t help, I lose hope to get better. I’m so thankful that I’m religious and have a strong faith to God. I believed that everything happens for a reason and hoping to get well soon and still can go back to my old lifestyle. I learned so much from your discussions & I’m so thankful for that. God bless you sir. Thanks for sharing. Carry on.

Wow I spent a week on google tryna find any symptoms to ones I have and you literally explained it in 5min. Then the additional info was even more helpful. So I’ll go ahead and leave a like and a sub for you 👌🏽 Lol literally the first video I watched and got my answer. I have horrible anxiety with going to the doctors but getting info like this makes it easier to go in.

Well explained, very helpful and informative video thanks

Good information Sir

I believe I may have solved my own stomach issues in that case. Yet I'm still going to have my stomach checked out just to be on the safe side. This truly helped.

My grandma has peptic ulcer. This is very informative. Thank you! 💗
-
Hello Dr, I have the same problems, how can do?
-
I think I’m going through all this as well, my stomach hurt and having chest pain and discomfort. I feel weak and lost appetite as well. I did a lot of test but only the ulcer test was positive. Have been on medication but it won’t go away
-
Perfect explanation exactly what I was suffering from
-
I highly recommend if you feel something wrong get it checked. I had a bleeding ulcer and didn't know because I had no symptoms. So basically everything happened at once or THE SAME TIME. I'm well now but get it checked
