Symptoms Your Pain Is an Ulcer

You’ve had unexplained vomiting

The nausea brought on by ulcers may become so intense that it could actually cause you to vomit. Frequent vomiting is never a fun experience, but whatever you do, stay away from medications like ibuprofen and aspirin when treating the condition and other ulcer symptoms. According to Dr. Sengupta, these over-the-counter pain medications actually put you at a higher risk of developing ulcers.

 

You have heartburn at most meals

If you experience frequent heartburn, regardless of what you eat, an ulcer may be responsible. Many patients with ulcers describe feeling very intense chest pain, which often causes them to burp or hiccup more than usual after eating. In many cases, a simple over-the-counter antacid can be taken to alleviate some pain and gassiness, but if it persists day after day, it’s likely something more than a regular case of heartburn.
