Life style modification and diet rationalisation. If some one has recurrent or resistant non healing ulcers...need more work up and therapy based on the outcome.

Only endoscopy can rule out or confirm ulcer. So if u have ulcer proven by endoscopy then u need to be on Sompraz 40 mgs 2 times a day for 6 weeks. And if even after this treatment u have the symptoms like pain then u will need repeat endoscopy. But if u never had endoscopy then u may not have ulcer and this is only indigestion as symptoms are same for both.

Firstly, if you have lo g standing or recurrent symptoms requiring you to take Tab. Sompraz more than 3 times a week, then you should consult your Gastroenterologist and get an upper GI endoscopy evaluation done with Rapid urease test (RUT) for H pylori infection.  Also doctor will decide for biopsy if ulcer detected on endoscopy. Avoid spicy, oily and masala food. No cillies or pickles. Take small frequent meals. No smoking, tobacco, alcohol or caffeinated drinks. No painkillers to be taken.
