What do I do for an ulcer?

The doctor says I have an ulcer. What foods do I avoid and what over the counter medicines can I take without irritating it?

    if a doctor told you that you have an ulcer, he would also have told you how it needs to be treated. If you didn't listen, then I suggest you call him and ask him to tell you again. If you didn't actually see a doctor, then I suggest that you do, a person that diagnoses and treats themselves has a fool for a patient.

    dont eat anything spicy or acidic. You must drink plenty of water and eat bread and crackers. You dont want to ever have an empty stomch or your stomach acids will aggrevate the ulcer.
