Actually ulcer is not that easy to heal,
even when taken a medicine...That's
because, ulcer takes time to heal...The
pain that you felt when you eat is the
cause of the acid that heats the area were
your ulcer is..Because when we eat..Isn't
that our stomach produce acid to digest
the food that we just eat? So every time
you eat the acid that the stomach produce
heats your ulcer or the bleeding cause by
the acid also.

I suggest that when you got an
ulcer...Never skip meals, if your hungry,
eat...That is because, if a person that
has an ulcer and skip his meals. The acid
that is presents in the stomach will
surely burn the mucus that protects the
stomach...Thus causing our stomach to
bleed again...
Imagine an empty stomach with acid on
it...What will the acid burn? if there is
no food present in our stomach? That
doesn't mean that, if we don't eat, there
will be no acid in our stomach...Some
factors that triggers the acid in our
stomach is when we think of food, when we
smell a food, see a food and even dream of
eating a food, triggers the acid.

i read somewhere that it is better to eat
small but many instead of large but few
meals a day. Do not over eat. I have
noticed that when i over eat, i have
problems. I guess because my stomach has
to make more acid to digest the food and
the acid agitates my stomach and the ulcer
never heals.
