Brief Answer:
Hunger pain is the main symptom in stomach ulcer.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Hunger pain is the main symptom in case of stomach ulcer. You may get severe pain and discomfort on stomach especially during night time and early morning also.

Churning of stomach can be due to irritable bowel syndrome, malabsorption, gall bladder and pancreas problems or due to intolerance to some food items.

You can take antacids, peppermint , ginger tea etc. Avoid milk. But you can take yogurt or kefir. Avoid fatty, greasy and junk foods. Caffeinated, alcoholic and carbonated drinks should be avoided also.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
