A peptic ulcer is a sore in the lining of your stomach or duodenum.
The duodenum is the first part of your small intestine. A peptic
ulcer in the stomach is called a gastric ulcer. One that is in the
duodenum is called a duodenal ulcer. A peptic ulcer also may
develop just above your stomach in the esophagus, the tube that
connects the mouth to the stomach. But most peptic ulcers develop
in the stomach or duodenum. This publication by the National
Institutes of Health (Publication No. 11-5042) provides information
about the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of peptic
ulcers.
