Stomach Ulcers

Ulcers are open sores on the skin or in the stomach. Sores occur because the constitution of the skin is weakened due to faulty nutrition.Ulcers are open sores on the skin or in the stomach. Sores occur because the constitution of the skin is weakened due to faulty nutrition.There are two common types of ulcers, duodenal and gastric. Duodenal ulcers usually cause pain before meals or between meals. Gastric ulcers usually cause pain after eating a meal.The stomach constantly secretes slime (mucous}.

This mucus lines the stomach and protects it. However, the natural usage of mucus during digestion causes the sores to be exposed to the strong stomach (gastric) acid which causes pain. Strong digestive juices leave the liver and go through a tube (duodenum) to the stomach to aid digestion. When the sores are exposed to the digestive juices due to insufficent mucous lining, the resultant pain is often called an ulcer. When this juice is secreted by the liver it irritates and pains the duodenum.
