Peptic ulcer disease
Reasons
Hereditary predisposition.
Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), anabolic steroids, cytostatics.
Stress factors (burns, traumatic brain injuries, neurosurgery).
Smoking and alcohol abuse.
Symptoms
Heaviness in the stomach, independent of the volume of food.
Heartburn and belching of acidic contents.
Nausea, sometimes vomiting.
Bitterness in the mouth.
Nocturnal pain (typical for duodenal ulcers).
Consequences
Massive bleeding is manifested by vomiting with blood, black stools and a sharp deterioration in the condition (weakness, dizziness, decreased blood pressure). Stenosis (narrowing) of the passage from the stomach to the duodenum makes it difficult for food to pass through, causing constant heaviness and vomiting. In rare cases, the ulcer can become malignant, leading to the development of stomach cancer.
