Peptic Ulcer Disease (PUD) Treatment in Andheri West

What is Peptic Ulcer Disease?

Peptic ulcer disease refers to sores that form on the lining of the stomach, upper small intestine, or esophagus. These ulcers develop when the protective mucous layer is weakened, allowing stomach acid to cause damage.

Types of Peptic Ulcers:

Gastric Ulcer: Forms in the stomach.
Duodenal Ulcer: Forms in the upper small intestine (duodenum).
Esophageal Ulcer: Forms in the esophagus (less common).

Symptoms of Peptic Ulcer Disease

Recognizing the signs of peptic ulcers is crucial for early diagnosis:

Burning Stomach Pain: Often worse on an empty stomach.
Nausea and Vomiting: Common with gastric ulcers.
Bleeding Ulcers Symptoms: Black stools or vomiting blood.
Bloating and Indigestion: Frequent discomfort after meals.
Unexplained Weight Loss: May indicate severe complications.

If left untreated, ulcers can lead to perforation, intestinal blockage, or life-threatening bleeding.

Causes of Peptic Ulcers

Peptic ulcers can result from several factors:

H. pylori Infection: A common bacterial cause of ulcers.
NSAIDs: Long-term use of painkillers like ibuprofen or aspirin.
Stress and Smoking: Contribute to ulcer development.
Acid Reflux: Can exacerbate symptoms of acid peptic disorder.

Understanding these causes helps in tailoring the most effective treatment plan.

Diagnosis of Peptic Ulcers

At Curis Life, we use advanced diagnostic methods to identify peptic ulcers accurately:

Endoscopy for Peptic Ulcers: Direct visualization of ulcers in the digestive tract.
H. pylori Test for Ulcers: Identifies bacterial infections.
Imaging for Peptic Ulcer Disease: CT scans or X-rays for complications like perforation.
Blood Tests: Detects anemia or infection.

Treatment Options for Peptic Ulcer Disease

1. Non-Surgical Treatments

For most patients, non-surgical options are the first line of defense:

Medications for Peptic Ulcers:
- Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs): Reduce stomach acid.
- Antacids: Provide immediate relief.
- H. pylori Eradication Therapy: Antibiotics to eliminate bacterial infections.
Lifestyle Changes:
- Avoid spicy foods, alcohol, and smoking.
- Manage stress with relaxation techniques.

2. Surgical Treatments

In severe cases or when complications arise, surgery may be necessary:

Laparoscopic Ulcer Surgery

Minimally invasive and highly effective, this surgery involves:

Small incisions for faster recovery.
Reduced pain and minimal scarring.
Quicker hospital discharge.

Other Surgical Procedures

Vagotomy: Reduces acid secretion by cutting nerves.
Pyloroplasty: Enlarges the opening between the stomach and duodenum.
Partial Gastrectomy: Removes the affected portion of the stomach.
Emergency Surgery for Bleeding Ulcers: Stops active bleeding.

Post-Surgical Care for Peptic Ulcers

Recovery after ulcer surgery involves:

Diet After Ulcer Surgery: Start with soft foods and gradually transition to a normal diet.
Pain Management: Prescribed medications to ease discomfort.
Regular Follow-ups: To monitor healing and prevent recurrence.

At Curis Life, our team provides comprehensive post-operative support to ensure a smooth recovery.
