Does Chronic Gastric Ulcer Have a High Risk of Canceration?

Update Date: Source: Network

Whether the risk of repeated gastric ulcer canceration is high depends on specific conditions.

If the patient actively treats the condition and pays attention to a healthy diet and regular lifestyle in daily life, canceration is generally unlikely to occur.

1. Non-severe cases: Gastric ulcer is usually a peptic ulcer disease caused by Helicobacter pylori infection, often presenting with symptoms such as upper abdominal pain and abdominal distension. If the patient's condition is relatively minor, and they actively cooperate with doctors in taking medications such as Omeprazole Enteric-coated Tablets, Amoxicillin Capsules, Clarithromycin Capsules, and Colloidal Bismuth Pectin Capsules, and also strengthen their daily care, such as maintaining a good mindset, abstaining from alcohol and tobacco, and avoiding spicy and stimulating foods, the probability of canceration is relatively low.

2. Severe cases: However, if the patient fails to cooperate with doctors in timely and effective treatment, leading to further aggravation of the condition, such as severe gastric bleeding and perforation, it may increase the risk of canceration. It is recommended that patients regularly visit the hospital for follow-up to understand their recovery status. At the same time, they should also develop good habits, ensure sufficient sleep time, avoid staying up late and overworking for extended periods. In addition, dietary adjustments should be made reasonably, focusing on light and digestible foods. Eating fresh fruits and vegetables can supplement vitamins, which is beneficial to health.
