To diagnose an ulcer, you may need a test called an upper endoscopy (EGD). This is a test to examine the lining of the esophagus (the tube that connects your throat to your stomach), stomach, and first part of the small intestine.
The initial treatment for a stomach ulcer is a 4- to 8-week course of a medicine to reduce the amount of acid in your stomach. This will help to heal the ulcer. If it is found that you are infected with H. pylori, you will need a course of treatment with medicines to clear this infection.
