Peptic ulcer - a pathological process that occurs with the formation of difficult healing of chronic ulcers in the stomach or duodenum twelve. This disease has long attracted the attention of practitioners and scholars. Her carefully study and yet the main of it is not yet known. Know how to cure, they know many wonderful techniques, they can help, but do not eliminate the ulcer.

It is usually assumed that the ulcer is due to violations of the diet. Large breaks in between meals, irregular meals, eating dry rations, abuse of spicy dishes lead to strain the digestive center. Because of sharply increased stimulation of parasympathetic autonomic nervous system (vagus nerve). Released excessive amounts of acidic gastric juice with high digestive capacity of an empty stomach and duodenum.

Moreover spasm sphincter leads to compression of blood vessels and poor circulation, which contributes to mucosal hypoxia, its necrosis, necrosis and ulceration. Once arisen, the mucosal defect is defenseless against the digesting action of gastric and pancreatic juices. An ulcer is increasingly widening. The organism is protected from further destruction by inflammation and proliferation of connective tissue. The connective tissue is more difficult to digest digestive juices. Two processes compete with each other: or ulcer heals with scarring, or it will go (continue) for many years. It depends primarily on whether to save the cause of the ulcer. Often the cause of peptic ulcer disease are nervous and mental stress, negative emotions, especially when the prolonged nature of the cerebral cortex loses the ability to effectively manage the sub cortex, the conditions of chaotic, disorderly activity of sub cortical centers. Over excitation parasympathetic centers leads to increased secretion of acid juice and spasms in the stomach and duodenum. Over excitation of the sympathetic centers leads to spasms of the arteries and circulatory problems.

Negative emotions, nervous stress lead to stress, release excessive amounts of glucocorticoids, adrenalin, noradrenalin, which can also cause ulcers, sometimes-acute perforation and bleeding. It affects the tonic constriction of small arteries and increased secretion of acid gastric juice, violated a protective barrier against digestion. Simultaneously, the allocation of androgens (male sex hormones), which contributes to the release of duodenal and gastric hormones These hormones increase secretion of highly active juice and enhance motor function of the stomach and duodenum until the chaotic reduction.

Large role in the origin of peptic ulcer disease is smoking and drinking. Smoking causes chronic toxicity of nicotine, which leads to irritation of the sympathetic ganglia and spasms of the arteries. Sublimation products of tobacco and alcohol also cause direct damage to the mucous membrane, reducing its barrier function.
