Under what circumstances can esophageal ulcers cause malignancy?

Patient's question:

I have had esophageal ulcers for many years. Under what circumstances can esophageal ulcers lead to malignancy? What should I pay attention to in daily life?

Doctor's answer:

If esophageal ulcers are not treated with oral medication for a long time or are not taken seriously, they may lead to malignancy and develop into esophageal cancer. Therefore, active oral medication treatment or anesthetic medication is necessary. The specific dosage and usage of the medication should be used under the guidance of a clinical diagnosis doctor. In daily life, it is recommended to maintain a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods as well as overly hot foods.
