A member asked:
So the "books" say pain better with eating=duodenal ulcer, worse with eating=gastric ulcer. what does the "everyday medical practice" say?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The same but...: The treatment for both types of ulcers is the same as long as the ulcers aren't bleeding. Serious ulcer can require surgical intervention.
