Is it ok to leave stomach ulcer untreated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you truly have a stomach ulcer and do not treat it, it can cause low blood counts (anemia), chronic abdominal pain and in some cases death from bleeding or perforation of your stomach. If you do have an ulcer you should treat it.
