How to use "Ulcer" in context?
Ulcers are areas on the stomach or duodenum that can become stretched and infected, leading to pain and inflammation. Ulcers can occur anywhere on the stomach, but are most common on the horizontal surface surrounding the stomach. They are usually caused by Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that is present in the stomachs of over half of the world's population. Ulcers can also develop from other causes such as acid reflux or gastritis. Treatment typically involves antibiotics and pain relief medication.
