A member asked:
How do you know if you have a perforated ulcer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain gets worse: Pain in the stomach area(above your navel) usually gets worse with nausea, vomiting, sometimes accompanied by fever, dizziness. Any symptoms that get worse, seek medical advice. Here are risk factors for developing stomach irritation or ulcers - too much intake of caffeinated drinks, alcohol, spicy foods, leading a stressful life/type a personality. Hope to be of help.
