Stomach and duodenal ulcers
Peptic ulcers are open sores that develop on the inside lining of your stomach (stomach ulcers) or the upper portion of your small intestine (duodenal ulcers). While they can cause significant pain, modern gastroenterology offers highly effective ways to heal the damage and eliminate the root cause, such as infections or medication side effects.
What causes these ulcers to form?
Most ulcers are caused by an infection with H. pylori bacteria or long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
How do we accurately diagnose them?
Dr. Fabris uses advanced diagnostic tools, including painless gastroscopy, to visually confirm the ulcer and check for the presence of bacteria.
What are the common symptoms?
The most common symptom is burning stomach pain, which may feel worse when the stomach is empty or shortly after eating.
How is the healing process managed?
Treatment focuses on eliminating bacteria, reducing stomach acid production with specialized medications, and providing dietary guidance to support long-term mucosal healing.
