Causes & Risk Factors
Several factors can contribute to the development of peptic ulcers. Identifying the underlying cause is essential to guide effective treatment and reduce recurrence.
Helicobacter pylori infection
This bacterial infection is a primary cause of peptic ulcers. It weakens the stomach lining, allowing acid to damage it, creating an ulcer.
Smoking
Smoking slows ulcer healing and increases the likelihood of complications such as bleeding and perforation.
Frequent use of NSAIDs
Regular use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (like ibuprofen) can irritate the stomach lining, increasing the risk of developing ulcers.
Heavy alcohol consumption
Excessive drinking can irritate and erode the stomach lining, increasing the risk of ulcer formation.
Complications of Peptic Ulcers
If left untreated, peptic ulcers can lead to more serious complications. Understanding these risks emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and treatment.
Internal bleeding
where the ulcer erodes blood vessels
Obstruction
due to swelling or scarring
Perforation
or a hole in the stomach or intestine
Gastric Cancer
Long-term, untreated ulcers, increase the risk
