Hi Greetings
There is not much reason to worry at this moment. The possibility of ulcer is low when someone has such abdominal pain intermittently.
The information provided by you is not sufficient to provide a good opinion. If someone comes to me with abdominal pain I would ask them these details to zero-in on my opinion:
When did the pain start? How is it progressing since then?
Where exactly over the abdomen is the pain?
Do you have nausea or vomiting associated with it?
Did you lose appetite and weight recently? If yes how much and in what time?
I would like these details from you to help you further.
meanwhile you can consult your doctor for endoscopy and anti acidity medicines like tablet pantoperazole and antacids.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help
warm regards
