Peptic Ulcer & Gastritis Treatment in South Delhi
A peptic ulcer is an open sore in the lining of the stomach or duodenum; gastritis is inflammation of the same lining. Both are almost always caused by H. pylori infection or painkillers — and both are curable when the cause is treated properly.
Symptoms
- Gnawing or burning pain in the upper abdomen, often between meals or at night
- Pain relieved (duodenal) or worsened (gastric) by eating
- Bloating, nausea, early fullness
- Black tarry stool or vomiting blood — an emergency

See a doctor urgently if
- Severe or worsening abdominal pain

Questions patients ask about peptic ulcer & gastritis
Is a stomach ulcer dangerous?
Untreated ulcers can bleed or perforate. With correct treatment nearly all heal within 4–8 weeks.
Does spicy food cause ulcers?
No — H. pylori and painkillers do. Spicy food may aggravate symptoms but does not create the ulcer.
Can an ulcer be cancer?
Some gastric ulcers are. That is why gastric ulcers are biopsied and re-scoped after treatment.
