What are the treatment options for gastric ulcers?

Patient's question:

I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach feels dull pain sometimes with symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. I went to the hospital and it was treated for a while, but it started again. What are the treatment options for gastric ulcers?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment plan for gastric ulcer primarily involves acid suppression therapy, such as pantoprazole enteric-coated tablets. To protect the gastric mucosa, gastric mucosal protectants like sucralfate tablets or cisapride tablets can be taken. If there is a risk of Helicobacter pylori infection, antibiotics should be used for anti-infection treatment. Antacid and mucosal-protecting medications are generally taken for one to one and a half months, while antibiotic treatment typically lasts for one week. In daily life, it is important to maintain good living and dietary habits. The diet should be nutritious, regular, and easily digestible. Smoking and drinking beer should be avoided, as well as spicy, irritating foods, and extremely cold, hard, or rough foods.
