  1. duodenal ulcer

    A duodenal ulcer is a type of peptic ulcer that develops in the first part of the small intestine, called the duodenum. It is a sore or lesion that forms on the lining when there is excessive acid production which damages the lining. The primary cause of duodenal ulcers is bacteria known as Helicobacter pylori, but they can also be caused by long term usage of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Symptoms often include abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, and a feeling of fullness.
