A peptic ulcer is a sore that develops on the lining of stomach, small intestine or esophagus. A peptic ulcer in the stomach is called a gastric ulcer. A duodenal ulcer is a peptic ulcer that develops in the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). An esophageal ulcer occurs in the lower part of your esophagus. Ulcers occur when stomach acid damages the lining of the digestive tract. Common causes include the bacteria H. Pylori and anti-inflammatory pain relievers including aspirin. Upper abdominal pain is a common symptom. Treatment usually includes medication to decrease stomach acid production. If it is caused by bacteria, antibiotics may be required.
Signs & Symptoms
The most common symptom is a burning sensation or pain in the middle of the abdomen between your chest and belly button. Typically, the pain will be more intense when the stomach is empty, and it can last for a few minutes to several hours.
Other common signs and symptoms of ulcers include:
- dull pain in the stomach
- Trouble breathing.
- Feeling faint.
- Nausea or vomiting.
- Unexplained weight loss.
- Appetite changes.
- Vomiting or vomiting blood — which may appear red or black.
- Dark blood in stools, or stools that are black or tarry.
Verursacht
Stomach ulcers are almost always caused by one of the following:
- H.pylori infection
- long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen
- Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (a rare medical condition)
Pathophysiologie
Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is characterized by discontinuation in the inner lining of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract because of gastric acid secretion or pepsin. It extends into the muscularis propria layer of the gastric epithelium. It usually occurs in the stomach and proximal duodenum. Peptic ulcers are defects in the gastric or duodenal mucosa that extend through the muscularis mucosa.
Under normal conditions, a physiologic balance exists between gastric acid secretion and gastroduodenal mucosal defence. Mucosal injury and, thus, peptic ulcer occur when the balance between the aggressive factors and the defensive mechanisms is disrupted. Aggressive factors, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), H pylori infection, alcohol, bile salts, acid, and pepsin, can alter the mucosal defence by allowing back diffusion of hydrogen ions and subsequent epithelial cell injury. The defensive mechanisms include tight intercellular junctions, mucus, bicarbonate, mucosal blood flow, cellular restitution, and epithelial renewal.
H pylori can cause a major part of the pathology which includes acid and pepsin, that contributes to primary peptic ulcer disease. The unique microbiologic characteristics of H. pylori, such as urease production, allows it to alkalinize its microenvironment and survive for years in the hostile acidic environment of the stomach, where it causes mucosal inflammation and, in some individuals, worsens the severity of peptic ulcer disease.
When H pylori colonizes the gastric mucosa, inflammation usually results. In patients infected with H pylori, high levels of gastrin and pepsinogen and reduced levels of somatostatin have been measured. In infected patients, exposure of the duodenum to acid is increased. Virulence factors produced by H pylori, including urease, catalase, vacuolating cytotoxin, and lipopolysaccharide, are well described.
Most patients with duodenal ulcers have impaired duodenal bicarbonate secretion, which has also proven to be caused by H pylori because its eradication reverses the defect. The combination of increased gastric acid secretion and reduced duodenal bicarbonate secretion lowers the pH in the duodenum, which promotes the development of gastric metaplasia (i.e., the presence of gastric epithelium in the first portion of the duodenum). H pylori infection in areas of gastric metaplasia induces duodenitis and enhances the susceptibility to acid injury, thereby predisposing to duodenal ulcers.
Diagnose
- Medical history
- Blood test, stool test, or a breath test to rule out H.pylori infection.
- Other tests and procedures used to diagnose stomach ulcers include:
- Barium swallow test
- Endoscopy (EGD)
- Endoscopic biopsy
Behandlungen
It’s important to promptly treat an ulcer. Treatment will vary depending on the cause of the ulcer. Most ulcers can be treated with medicines but in rare cases, surgery may be required. In an actively bleeding ulcer, hospitalisation and intensive treatment including endoscopy, IV ulcer medications or blood transfusion is needed.
- Nonsurgical treatment
Antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are used to treat H. pylori infection. PPIs block the stomach cells that produce acid.
In addition to these following therapies are also advised in some cases:
- H2 receptor blockers
- stopping use of all NSAIDs
- follow-up endoscopy
- probiotics
- bismuth supplement
- Surgical treatment
In very rare cases, a non-healing or recurring and complicated stomach ulcer will require surgery.
Surgery may include:
- removal of the entire ulcer
- taking tissue from another part of the intestines and patching it over the ulcer site
- repairing a bleeding artery
- cutting off the nerve supply to the stomach to reduce the production of stomach acid
Prognose
When the underlying cause of peptic ulcer disease is addressed, the prognosis is excellent. Most patients are treated successfully with the eradication of H pylori infection, avoidance of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs), and the appropriate use of antisecretory therapy.
Komplikationen
If left untreated, peptic ulcers can result in:
- Internal bleeding
- A hole (perforation) in the stomach wall
- Obstruction in the digestive tract
- Gastric cancer
Krankheit & Ayurveda
In Ayurveda, abdominal pain and colic comes uder shola and peptic ulcer can be compared with parinama soola or annadravasoola in chronic stage. The word parinama means transformation and here it implies digestion. Abdominal pain which is related with the stages of digestion is called parinaama soola. Anna means solid foods and drava means liquids. Abdominal pain developing while the intake of solid or liquid diet (regardless of food intake) is called annadravasoolawhich is said to be incurable.
Nidana
- Causative factors for the vitiation of Vaata dosha
- Unwholesome diet
- Untimely diet
- Unhealthy eating habits
- Sleeping disorders
