Duodenal ulcer etiology

Duodenal ulcer may be related to genetic factors, bad eating habits, mental psychological factors, drug factors, Helicobacter pylori infection and other factors.

1. Genetic factors

research shows that there is a family history in patients with duodenal ulcer, suggesting that the disease has a certain relationship with heredity.

2. Bad eating habits

Long-term intake of spicy, greasy, irritating food, or overeating, hunger and other bad eating habits may stimulate gastric mucosa, increase gastric acid secretion, and cause duodenal ulcer.

3. Mental psychological factors such as

stress, anxiety, depression, or stress events such as work pressure and study pressure may affect the immune system function of the body and increase the risk of duodenal ulcer.

4. Drug factors

Some drugs, such as aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, etc., are easy to cause acute inflammation of gastric mucosa, leading to duodenal ulcer.

5. Helicobacter pylori infection

If there is Helicobacter pylori infection, no timely treatment can cause gastric mucosa damage, and eventually cause duodenal ulcer.
