    Symptoms of stomach ulcer
    There are many symptoms of stomach ulcer. But what is symptoms in medical terms?. Symptoms are subjective evidence or assessment of a disease as spotted by an observer. There fore, various symptoms of ulcer include
  • Severe pain during or after meal
  • Abdominal pain
  • Sore throat

    Then let's dive into our main focus which are some home remedies for treating stomach ulcer especially if you don't have money for medications
    There are various home remedies available for treating ulcer, but I advise that you should talk to your doctor to seek his or her permission before trying this home remedies. Why should you consult your doctor? . The reason why you should seek your doctor's permission is that some of this home remedies may affect you if you already have some health condition, this is to avoid drug to drug interaction where the effect of one drug may cancel or reduce the effect of the other drug.
    Before I dig into some of this home remedies,I will tell you a story of one man who has been suffering from ulcer for years and have received several medical treatment for ulcer but only to notice that what has been delaying his healing time was that he is taking synthetic medicine and natural herbal medicine and some home remedies together. The effect of the herbal remedies is cancelling the effect of the synthetic medicine . Both of the medicines are active in healing ulcer only when they are taken solely to avoid inhibitory effect of one drug to another.
    I am not saying that herbal or traditional medicine is not good, what I am emphasising on is that one drug may act as an inhibitor to it's counterpart.
    There was a man named wisdom, this man is a rich man, he was having stomach ulcer, one day he went to the city hospital to see his doctor, his doctor diagnosed him and send him for a medical test, after running tests, the results came out and the doctor found out that he is having stomach ulcer, the doctor prescribed some drugs to this man , he is to take the drug for two to three weeks for maximum healing. The man came back home and started taking the drugs, but a week later he saw a herbalist selling herbal medicine for ulcer treatment , the man bought the herbal medicine. He started taking it and stopped the medicines he was taking without informing his doctor, unfortunately the man finished the herbal medicine and although he responded to the treatment but he didn't obtain maximum healing. It was at last that the doctor found out and told him that he should not take the two medicine at the same time, that it's either take one then wait for 1week interval before embarking on the other drug. The man did as the doctor told him and he received healing permanently.
    What was holding this man is drug to drug interaction.
    Okay let's list some home remedies for treating stomach ulcer?
