The real cause of the disease has been revealed
Why does peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum occur, is it related to diet and stress, Anna Shlyakhtina, a therapist at the Hospital for War Veterans No. 2, told the Moscow Medicine newspaper.
Peptic ulcers of the stomach or duodenum are caused by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori. Only in rare cases is it not found in patients with such diseases.
You can check whether this pathogen lives in your body with a breath test called the 13C-urease test. Blood and stool tests will be ordered.
“Stress not only affects eating behavior, but also at the hormonal level provokes and increases the risk of peptic ulcers,” explained Shlyakhtina.
But improper diet is a very rare cause of damage to the gastric mucosa. But it is often damaged by active smoking and frequent drinking.
“Long-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can also affect the occurrence of peptic ulcers,” the doctor warned.
Sometimes the cause of ulcers is a hereditary predisposition.
