What Causes Flaring Up Of Ulcer In Abdomen?

I went to the doctor about 2 weeks ago with sever pain in my upper abdomen. Had blood text and an ultrasound that come back normal. They thought I might have gallstones or kidney stones. The doctor is treating me as if I have an ulcer with Carafate. I will be having my first colonoscopy this year but I am still having bad pain in my stomach area that has not gone away. At work every time there is some stressful my stomach flares up and even when there isn t any thing going on my stomach is on fire. How long does it take of an ulcer to stop flaring up...

Hi thanks for asking question.

You could have gastritis or ulcer like condition.

For treating it first you have to take regular pentoprazole or rabeprazole for at least 2 week.

Meanwhile follow below instruction.....
-more water
-green leafy veg more
-non veg food taken very less
-excess tea and coffee avoided
-avoid smoking and alcohol
-fruit taken more

THE IMPORTENT IS AVOID STRESS.
As stress can precipitate gastritis.

If still no improvement then test for h.pylori infection done.

Take care
