Gastric Ulcer - #18414

For the past few months, I’ve been dealing with terrible stomach pain, especially after eating. At first, I thought it was just acidity, but then I started feeling this burning sensation deep in my stomach, and sometimes, I even feel nauseous. I finally got a check-up, and the doctor said I have a gastric ulcer. I had no idea what that meant, but he explained it’s a sore in the stomach lining. I want to understand—how does Ayurveda view gastric ulcers? Does Ayurveda believe there are specific imbalances that cause a gastric ulcer? My doctor said stress and spicy food can make it worse, but I’ve been eating the same way for years. Why would I suddenly develop a gastric ulcer now? I was also told that H. pylori bacteria can cause a gastric ulcer. Does Ayurveda have natural ways to fight this bacteria without antibiotics? Are there herbs or remedies that can heal the stomach lining and prevent a gastric ulcer from getting worse? The biggest problem for me is that I can’t eat properly anymore. Even small meals trigger pain. I’ve already reduced spicy and fried foods, but I still feel discomfort. What Ayurvedic diet would you recommend to help heal a gastric ulcer? Are there specific foods I should eat daily to strengthen my stomach? At night, my gastric ulcer pain gets worse. I read that digestion slows down while sleeping. Could that be making my symptoms worse? Does Ayurveda suggest any nighttime remedies to prevent stomach pain from a gastric ulcer? I don’t want to rely on acid-blocking medications forever. How can Ayurveda help treat a gastric ulcer from the root cause? Are there long-term lifestyle changes that can prevent it from coming back?
