My son had this problem some years ago and he was hospitalized twice with many tests and treatment.  One day a friend told him to get up early in the morning and without brushing his teeth, keep drinking glasses of water up to 5 or 6.  Then wait for 45 minutes and brush your teeth and take breakfast. He said he would be well in 3 days.  My son felt much better the next day and did this for 3 days.  Always drink plenty of water during the whole day even if you are not sick.  Try this it works and keep a diet of non spicy food especially red chillies.

What is not a risk factor\nEating spicy foods or drinking caffeine or moderate amounts of alcohol were once thought to increase your risk of developing an ulcer. This is no longer believed to be true. However, although eating certain foods or drinking certain beverages may not increase your risk of developing an ulcer, they may cause symptoms of heartburn or indigestion. You may need to avoid them if they bother you.\n\nMost health professionals do not believe that psychological stress causes ulcers. However, when combined with other risk factors, stress may increase your risk of developing a peptic ulcer.

You asked about bleeding ulcers and not ulcers in general so I will address your question.  If the ulcer is gastric (stomach) or duodenal (first portion of the small intestine) you may have "coffee grounds emesis". This is vomiting that looks like coffee grounds due to partially digested blood.  Your stool will be black and tarry due to digested blood. If the ucler is in a section of the large intestine, your stool will have bright, fresh, (undigested) blood.  With any ulcer there is often pain but these are the signs specifically of a bleeding ulcer.

you probably have 'gerd'.  stomach acid like yours can cause ulcers in your esophogus.  prevacid is best prescription.  maybe you need an endoscopy.  according to another q:  i am believing you have been under some unbearable stress at home.  i've beem treated for 'gerd' and ulcers in my esophogus for years!  \n\nI ALSO ANSWERED 'CAN GOD CONTROL YOUR LIFE'?  i also turned in that guy who is trying to knock the props from under you.  you see, GOD sends help just when you need it most!  WHY?  BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU AND IS REACHING OUT TO HELP YOU IN HIS WORD!

If you mean in terms of the human body, gastric means stomach.  So a gastric ulcer is an ulcer in the stomach, and a gastric tube is a tube inserted into the stomach, etc....

If you mena peptic (stomach) ulcers, then the above answers are interesting.  For centuries, we thought that acid causes ulcers.  Something seemed wrong with that hypothesis, though, since the stomach is MEANT to have the acid, so why would it cause ulcers? Well in the early 1980's two pretty brave Australian doctors thought of a radical idea: the ulcers are caused by bacteria.  They spent their life proving it and they finally succeeded.  THey actually swallowd the bacteria and have gotten ulcers on purpose.  It all paid off, though, as they have become recipients of the 2005 Nobel Prize in Medicine.  So the second poster is right.  It is bacteria and it is called Helicobacter pylori.  Plenty of people have it and stress, smoking and alcohol make the likelihood of getting an ulcer worst.  If you have ulcers, ask your doctor to check you for H. pylori and treat you as necessary.  Cheers.\n\nCheck this out:\n\nhttp://nobelprize.org/medicine/laureates/2005/

I presume the typical symptoms of a stomach ulcer.\n\nH. Pylori was found to be the source of some \nstomach ulcers, so antibotics became a cure\n(as opposed to diet change or antacids to treat\nthe symptoms).

Helicobacter pylori-The H. pylori bacterium is found in the stomach\n\nAcid and pepsin-These powerful digestive fluids are believed to contribute to the formation of ulcers.\n\nNSAIDs-NSAIDs stands for NonSteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs. The most commonly known NSAIDs are aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen sodium. \n\nSmoking, Caffeine, Alcohol, & Stress\n\nGo see a doctor right away if you find blood in your stool, or try some OTC drugs like Tagament or Pepsid.  Good luck:)

I'll bet the doctor may have said "ulceritis".  Peptic ulceritis is a stomach condition.

there called ulcers and they can be anything from stresss to the food we eat , like really hot and spicy foods, they usually last for a few days and they go by them selves but if there really painfull try over the counter ointments, but the best thing that really dries them fast is salt water, just dissolve some salt in warm water and gargle 3 times a day

Ulcers bleed because they are holes in the lining of your stomach. Depending on the severity of the ulcer your doctor may put you on meds or perform surgery.

*  A burning, aching, gnawing pain between the navel and the breastbone. The pain sometimes extends to the back.\n    * Abdominal pain that can last from a few minutes to a few hours and usually goes away for a while after taking an antacid or acid reducer.\n    * Weeks of pain that comes and goes and may alternate with pain-free periods.\n    * Loss of appetite and weight loss.\n    * Bloating or nausea after eating.\n    * Vomiting after meals.\n    * Vomiting blood and/or material that looks like coffee grounds.\n    * Passing black, tarlike stools or stools containing dark red blood if the ulcer is bleeding.\n\n\nTreatment for peptic ulcer disease involves taking medications that reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach. If an H. pylori infection is present, antibiotics to eliminate the infection can be taken with these medications. Lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, limiting caffeine and alcohol intake, and reducing stress, can help speed the healing of your ulcer and prevent it from recurring.

Have you talked to your doctors? If you have liver problem you may want to cut down your cigarettes and alchohol. No fried food. If you cannot eat fresh fruits, how about cooked or steamed vegetables? One of the causes of mouth ulcers could be vitamin B2 deficiency. But there are other causes, too. Check with your doctor.  Coconut oil is not good. Olive oil is better. Egg white is OK. Egg yolk is for babies and children. Cream milk is not good.
