Specializes in General Practice

Get Ins #: Call your health insurance firm and ask for your account #, and give your health provider that along with the name of the insurer. In the meantime avoid nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin & ibuprofen , cigarettes, alcohol, coffee & soft drinks. Cabbage juice, licorice, honey, garlic, turmeric, aloe vera & probiotics may help prevent & treat stomach ulcers.
