We start thinking of duodenal or gastric ulcers whenever a patient constantly starts complaining of pain in the stomach after eating. This pain may get better on eating liquid food and inducing vomiting. The area of the stomach may become tender and even slight pressure or touch is unbearable. The vomit may contain blood in later stages.
According to homeopathic philosophy duodenal or gastric ulcers is a lifestyle disease whose main causes are—food with too much spices and oil, having meal at irregular timings, lack of exercise and sedentary habits.
Some patients may complain of bloating and belching of gas. Many may say that the food is lodged in the chest and the digestion process has painfully slowed down. Some patients may complain of chest burn and feeling of uneasiness.
It is advised that the patient should try to figure out the food which makes him worse and then he should avoid them.
One must not drink too much tea, coffee or aerated drinks. Lots of water should be taken all through the day. Consumption of alcohol should be minimal.
The patient who gets angry easily or is highly emotional should start doing yoga which really helps soothe the nerves.
There are 19 homoeopathic medicines which give great relief in duodenal or gastric ulcers. However, the correct choice and the resulting relief is a matter of experience and right judgment on the part of the homeopath. The treatment is decided after thorough case taking of the patient. Thus homeopathic remedies of duodenal or gastric ulcers are tailor made unlike allopathy in which all patients receive the same drugs although trade name may be different.
Some of the homeopathic remedies which may be used under an expert homeopath are Arsenic album, Phosphoros, Sulphur, Iris versicolor, Kali bichromicum, Bismuthum, Argentums nitricum and Graphitis.
Whenever cancer (malignancy) is suspected along with duodenal or gastric ulcers then Pepsinum, Kreosotum and Nitric acid have given great relief to patients.
This is one of the diseases where homoeopathy has won great laurels.
As soon as the right homeopathic remedies are started the patient starts experiencing great relief in symptoms and his or her dependence on allopathic drugs starts decreasing.
For total cure the homeopathic treatment must be taken seriously for about 8 to 12 months.
In allopathy the treatment is suppressive with antacids which do not deal with the cause of peptic or duodenal ulcers, thus further aggravating the problem. Homeopathy cure for duodenal or gastric ulcers aims at dealing with the cause and thus curing peptic ulcers from its root.

About 10% of all Americans suffer from gastric or duodenal ulcers at some point of their life.
Peptic or stomach ulcers are break or holes in the protective lining of stomach (gastic ulcers), duodenum (duodenal ulcers) and esophagus (esophageal ulcers). The most common of these is duodenal ulcers. Esophageal ulcers are usually due to excessive alcohol intake.
Duodenal ulcers are more common in males and usually occurs between 40 and 50 years of age. Gastric ulcers are common between 60 and 70 years of age.
Genetic predisposition to excessive acid secretion.
Alcohol.
Smoking.
Coffee.
Rich and fatty food.
Recent theory says that bacterial infection especially Helicobacter pylori is responsible. (But then all people having bacterium are not affected. It is the other factors mentioned above which are more important. Overzealous use of antibiotics is not recommended.)
Elderly people are more affected.
Type O blood group people are more prone to duodenal ulcers.
Type A blood group people are more prone to develop cancerous gastric ulcers.

Generally this therapy offers effective relief from anxiety, nervousness, stress and gastrointestinal disorders when administered by a trained practitioner.
Daily yoga practice helps alleviate stress and anxiety which are the major cause of increase acid secretion in the stomach and thereby irritating ulcers.
Eat foods which are rich in fibre. Fibre rich food has cancer preventing substances. Also fibre prevents development of duodenal ulcers. Fibre in food increases mucin secretion which helps in protection of duodenal lining.
What to reduce
Alcohol consumption should be reduced. I think it should not be more than 2 units per week.
Intake of pain killers like aspirin, ibuprofen and so on should be drastically reduced. In my view help of homeopathy should be taken to treat the cause of pain.
What to avoid
Decrease your intake of milk. It is a myth that milk coats the stomach and thus helps in preventing ulcers and acidity. The fact is milk increases the production of acid in stomach.
Foods to which you are allergic. Everyone is different; one thing which may be good for someone may not be good for use. See what does not suit and then avoid it. Use trial and error, preferably under the supervision of a homeopathic physician.
Stop smoking. Nicotine is cigarretes is known to suppress the pancreas from producing enzyemes which help neutrilize the acid in stomach.
Do not depend on antacids for treatment of acidity and ulcers. They do not treat the cause of increased acid secretion and in the long run actually stimulate the body to produce more acid thus requiring more antacids. Antacids have serious side effects like osteomalacia (softening of bones) because they deplete phosphate leveles.
Also iron supplements should be taken in moderation because too much or prolonged iron supplementation can cause irritation of stomach lining and ulcers.
