Have you been suffering from abdominal pain that gets more severe when you are on an empty stomach? It is likely that you have contracted a peptic ulcer. A peptic ulcer even referred to as peptic ulcer disease (PUD), is an open sore ring in the gastrointestinal tract that is essentially acidic in nature and causes severe pain. It is a mucousal erosion that occurs on the inner lining of the esophagus, stomach or upper parts of the small intestinal tract and is characterized by abdominal pain. Homeopathic remedies for peptic ulcers help provide suitable relief from this painful condition since these remedies have practically no side-effects and are non-toxic. 
Nearly 70–90% cases of such ulcers are linked to a spiral-shaped bacterium that thrives in the acidic environment of the stomach. The incidence of peptic ulcers occurring in the duodenum (the initial tract of the small intestine) is four times higher than those arising in the stomach.
I will discuss some remedies and myths of this disorder later in the article.
Homeopathic Remedies for Peptic Ulcers
There are a wide variety of medicines for Peptic Ulcers, ranging from Uranium Nitricum, Kali Bich and Graphites to Crotalus Horridus, Geranium and Graphites.
I find Uranium Nitricum to be the ideal remedy for gastric and duodenal ulcers characterized by boring pain in the pyloric region, a bloated abdomen, and a ravenous appetite followed by flatulence.
Kali Bich is best suited for round ulcers occurring in the stomach that lead to vomiting of bright yellow water and a load in the stomach immediately after eating, giving the patient the feeling that digestion has come to a standstill.
Crotalus Horridus is helpful in cases of ulceration in the stomach due to chronic alcoholism. Patients who are unable to retain anything, exhibit violent vomiting or vomit blood benefit from this medicine. Graphites is good for treating duodenal ulcers marked by a burning in the stomach and a feeling of hunger.
Kinds of Peptic Ulcers
Broadly speaking, peptic ulcers are classified into two main categories. The esophageal ulcers are those that occur in the esophagus, hollow tube through which food moves from your throat to your stomach. The duodenal ulcers are the ones that erupt inside of the upper portion of the duodenum, the small intestine.
The ulcers that are found in the stomach are termed as the gastric ulcers.
There is also a Meckel’s diverticulum ulcer, which is characterized by a lot of tenderness.
Symptoms of Peptic Ulcers
The primary symptom of a peptic ulcer is, of course, pain. The pain causes a burning sensation and gets more acute when the stomach acid passes over the sores. The pain can be experienced anywhere in the region of the navel, spreading to the breastbone.
The sensation of pain is worsened on an empty stomach and often gets more acute at night. The pattern of the pain is such that it may go away temporarily on consuming some non-acid producing foods but keeps returning from time to time.
The less common signs and symptoms of the peptic ulcers may include vomiting of blood that may look reddish or blackish in color, dark blood in stools or stools that are blackish, the feeling of nausea, a sudden drop in weight or appetite, etc.
Myths about Peptic Ulcers
The primary factor responsible for peptic ulcer is a chronic swelling caused by the Helicobacter pylori bacteria.
These ulcers can also be triggered by the use of NSAIDS. While the incidence of duodenal ulcers has fallen considerably during the past three decades or so, the number of cases of gastric ulcers have registered a rise, primarily due to the widespread use of NSAIDs.
The most common myth associated with peptic ulcers is that they are caused by highly spiced foods or a stress related job. It has also been believed that smoking, caffeine, coffee or alcohol consumption lead to this condition.
However, these are mostly myths and research has clearly shown that it is a bacterial infection or some medications which essentially trigger peptic ulcers.
Natural remedies for peptic ulcers not only provide permanent relief from pain and other related symptoms, they also treat the body’s inability to fight with helicobacter pylori . Thus once treated with natural remedies, peptic ulcers will be gone for good
sir, Ihave read your marvelous article regarding ulcer.I had taken mucaine gel before meal inseveral time and other medicines when pain is started. whenever l take meal in 3 hours gap, pain irritation is started in stomach area.Even ld onot take any pain killer tablet because it is more painful to me.l been taking several medicine but it is works for short period. lam suffering from 6to7years.sir, Ineed your advice to cure this disease .

SHOULD I CONTINUE OR ELSE SHOULD I USED ?
Please advice.
Dear Dr. Sharma
I suffer with duodenal ulcer on and off attacks for many years. I do not complain about pain that much, but dizziness,, imbalance, pressure on my eyes and back of the head. During my attacks. I feel like a drunk person, I have blurry vision and cannot stand on my two feet. My body shakes terribly. I have been told to have liver disfunction, candida, , ecoli, migrene without headache and other conditions that have been treated with any results or cure. I have my gallbladder removed and any treatment for liver gives me another attack.
I used homeopathics for years and respond very well to them, but I think I do not use the proper one for my condition. Noticing that everything I take linked to acidity-ulcers treatments help me a lot I think this condition I should treat. Looking at your posted site, I noticed that Uranium Nitricum is recomanded for duodenum ulcer.
I am wondering if you have anyother suggestion, especially one to help me with that dizziness after eating, which makes my life almost impossible to live.
Thank you,

Dr. Sharma,
My 63 year old, retired friend has had abdominal issues affecting his life on a continuous, daily basis for about 3 weeks. He is not the “go to the doctor” type, in general, however, he took amoxycillin recently for a tooth problem. His symptoms include pain that varies in position, but all below the ribs, & sometimes, in the lower abdomen, someyimes upper, and sometimes more to the left. The pain itself is always there, as at least a dull, constant ache, but after eating anything, it becomes sharper pins that can make him feel like he must double over. He has had recurring constipation, and he has treated it with Milk of Magnesia for a few nights, but also ha$ taken it intermittently as a treatment for heartburn, also, Pepto Bismol, he says, “…to coat the stomach.”
He has ordered probiotics, & is drinking orange juice, cranberry juice, & purified water, which he wasn’t before. His diet had mainly consisted of tuna salad & egg salad sandwiches, on wheat & white bread, as well as pizza. He’s a coffee drinker, a smoker, has drank alcohol in the ast few weeks, but not a regular drinker. In his younger years, he did drink regularly.
Right now, he refuses to try anything else, before he receives his probiotics & gives that a try, but I saw him
having the dull ache (which has now become “feeling better”) & then going into sharp pain, after eating fried shrimp & fries, which lasted from 6pm until about 3am. Please, if you have any particular homeopathic suggestions for him, let me know. If you need more info, also feel free, & I will get answers.
Thank you,
Audrey

Dear Dr.
Hope you are fine.
Many thanks for your kind attention.
Currently I am suffering with stomach ulcer problem with left side upper stomach pain. Couple of days back I got black stools with stomach pain. I got it evaluated by colonoscopy, endoscopy and whole abdomen CT scan.
Except Endoscopy all reports are normal and, initially in the black stool test it was found weakly positive blood but after medicines it got ended. My hemoglobin was normal in that period.
Even Drs performed small biopsy (tissue) test also during endoscopy test and concluded that it is H.Pylori (bacterial infection) associated gastritis. After course work, should I go f4 again endoscopy to test the ULCER healing or it does not require. Right now days My allopathic medicines course is over and I am taking Amla Juice daily. STill I have sometimes Pain inside my stomach.
Herewith I am sending you my endoscopy reports. Pls go through it and please provide me some homeopathy prescription. I hope homeopathy is more stable than Allopathic medicines for longer treatment.
Please let me know ur view.
I will be highly grateful to you.
