A member asked:
Why does stomach ulcer cause hunger pains a couple hours after eating???
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Body self therapy: Your body is reacting in two ways. First, first helps to coat the ulcer and lessen irritation. Hunger brings in food. Second, without food, the stomach is more irritated and the muscles will contract more causing stomach rumbling.
