    It’s a common misconception that stomach ulcers are caused by emotional upset, psychological distress, or spicy food. Yet no convincing study has ever demonstrated that these factors directly cause ulcer disease. So what does cause stomach ulcers? Rusha Modi explains how one doctor’s famous (and dangerous) experiment led us to the answer.

      What happens after you complete that long challenging task? Yes, you feel happiness but that doesn't last very long unfortunately - then you feel emptiness inside of you, just like you lost a friend. That continues until you find another challenge of your life.

      11 to 17 is pretty young to be having multiple ulcers. I can't blame them *too* much since you weren't in the usual target demographic for such a condition.
      It's similar to what happened to me when I was teenager: I had gallstones. Doctors were convinced I was having appendicitis, but one nurse suggested gallstones due to the fact I kept pointing to a certain area on my abdomen on where my pain was. It turned out she was right, so I avoided an unnecessary surgery. The Doctors explained the reason they were hesitant to even suggest it was because of my age. Most cases happen in your middle ages, not your teenage years.

      Your gastritis could be caused by something else. Gastritis = inflammation or infection in the stomach/G.I. tract. Other causes of gastritis include adverse effects of certain medications, drinking alcohol, smoking weed (especially synthetic marijuana), also other health ailments/diseases. Diabetes is a big culprit. How is your blood sugar?

    @emilycookie1499 Před 2 lety +25

    The moment I read the title of this video I was hoping that it would talk about H. Pylori, and I felt vindicated when it did. I was diagnosed with H. Pylori in high school. For years before that I have chronic stomach pain and nausea, but every time I went to my doctor she said it was because of stress and anxiety. I was surprised when a new doctor told me my symptoms may be caused by a bacteria that eats away at your stomach lining, allowing acid to hurt your stomach. I took antibiotics that killed the bacteria, and my stomach slowly healed. I still have stomach issues, but they’re much less frequent.
    I do wish this video described *how* H. Pylori causes stomach ulcers. And that it didn’t dismiss that stress and anxiety do cause stomach pain and nausea. Stomach issues are a stress response, and prolonged toxic stress weakens your immune system and allows bacteria to hurt your body. But it is a huge problem that many symptoms are dismissed by doctors as being due to stress, when they could be caused by a number of physical problems.

The most effective includes taking probiotics. If you think you have an infection, ask your doctor to be tested, and discuss the options you have. I hope you get effective treatment!

      I think the fact that you blindly trust a TED talk video over your doctor probably says a lot more about you (and likely most of our country) than it does about your doctor's education. While some stomach ulcers are caused by H. pylori (the bacteria), most are in fact caused by our diet (food, coffee, alcohol) and worsened with obesity, eating large meals late at night etc. There is certainly some benefit to getting tested for H. pylori, but its not cheap and its not like a strep throat swab. Additionally the treatment is for multiple weeks and is not 100% effective. While you may not want to hear it, just having heartburn is not an indication to be tested for H. pylori, for all the reasons I have mentioned. But by all means, rant on the interwebz about how you're smarter than youre doctor after watching a 5 minute video.

    I had gastritis a few years ago--actually, about the same time as this video was made. That was the worst month of my life. Not because I was in pain, since the pain went away rather quickly after I started taking antibiotics, but because when you have an ulcer, there is so much food that you can't eat. I ended up just not eating as much because I couldn't eat anything tasty, and my options were so limited that I was getting sick of unseasoned chicken and rice and apples.

    I had stomach ulcer about 17 years ago, and my doctor keep prescribed me with stomach acid suppression whenever symptoms reappearing (every 6 months or so), and I had that going for years. Until one day I meet a new doctor, she suggested it might be a bacterial infection and wanted me to do a test, sure enough, the test showed positive for bacterial infection, then I got the antibiotics, after a week I was fully cured, haven't had the ulcers ever since.

    What a HERO. I read an article about Barry Marshall a long time ago (probably around when he won the Nobel) but it was verrry complicated, but I was also really young. All I took away from it was that he was a hero and stress does NOT cause ulcers. When I would tell people the stress cause was a myth, they'd be like "Then what does?!" I wasn't able to fully explain it because the way i learned about it was always too complex....until now! I'm glad I can honor Marshall's work and can help dispel this rumor in my everyday life. :)

I fixed my diet and ate around 4 , took probiotics and quit alcohol all together. It took me a good 6 months for it to disappear all together. I slowly saw the pain come back less severe than before and eventually but went away. I haven’t had stomach pain for a year and alcohol is not worth that pain Al all.

    Excellent video, and good explanation about ulcers occur. One thing to know, your normal flora controls a lot of your illness and keep you healthy. Anything that affects it including taking antibiotics, stressors, illness, infection will alter the GI gut Flora. This alteration of the gut Flora allows for bad bacteria/ yeast to proliferate and cause disease

      They basically said that. 50% of people have H.Pylori in their stomach but only some of them get ulcers. It seems like smoking, severe stress and many other things can weaken the body's defences, allowing the infection to overrun the protections in the stomach and create an ulcer. However, without the bacteria in the first place, this wouldn't happen.
      The treatment is very simple - a week or so treatment with acid reducers and antibiotics. Way better than surgery (which was the final state treatment option before the bacteria was identified as the cause).

    "Fun fact": Stress may be related to ulcers because it usually affects our immunologic system and a inflamatory response. With a weaker immune defense, bacterias (and other organisms) that are usually "harmless" or easily defeated can turn out as a big problem. Of course, it doesn't mean that if you arent stressed you will not get ulcers, or if you are stressed you will get ulcers, but stress may be related to that problem.
