How is a duodenal ulcer treated?

Patient's question:

When I was young, I often attended banquets and drank too much beer, which gave me stomach pain. I also didn't eat dinner on time. Now that I'm getting older, the diseases have come. It's really a curse from heaven. Not eating dinner on time really means I have to take medicine on time. In the end, a thorough examination revealed that I had a stomach ulcer. The doctor prescribed a bunch of medicine for me. How do you treat a duodenal ulcer?

Doctor's answer:

If after careful examination and consideration it is determined to be a gastric ulcer, this condition should primarily involve adjusting dietary habits, quitting smoking and alcohol as much as possible, avoiding fatigue and staying up late, paying attention to regular meals, and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Three meals should be taken at fixed times and in fixed quantities. Additionally, oral aluminum hydroxide magnesium can be considered to protect the gastric mucosa, and oral pantoprazole can be taken to inhibit gastric acid secretion. It should gradually improve. It is recommended to have a further gastroscopy examination at the hospital after three months.
