Researchers now know that H. pylori bacteria are responsible for large numbers of peptic ulcers. Other causes include chronic aspirin use and the use of certain drugs that irritate the lining of the stomach and intestines. If you think you might have an ulcer, talk to your doctor. A simple blood test can determine if you have H. pylori. Antibiotics can treat an H. Pylori infection.
