“What is the fastest way to cure a stomach ulcer?”

Fastest way is to find the cause of the ulcer. Go see a GI specialist.

Stomach ulcers are not uncommon, however, they need to be treated properly. Although it’s serious, it’s treatable. Most serious complications are severe bleeding and perforation. A biopsy and test for H. pylori infection should be done on the initial endoscopy. If H. pylori infection is confirmed, it should be treated with antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors PPI, a follow-up endoscopy should be done to ensure resolution of the ulcer. Smoking cessation is highly recommended.
Hope you are feeling better soon.

To cure a stomach ulcer, you need to first remove the cause. This could be a medication, certain foods, caffeine, alcohol, or stress. The latter one may not be so easy. Sometimes, a bacteria can cause ulcers. Antibiotics would be needed to cure that. After that, we have several categories of medications that help to heal ulcers. These range from antacids (Mylanta or Tums), histamine blockers (Pepcid or Tagamet), or proton pump inhibitors (Prilosec or Prevacid). All can help cure an ulcer, but the cost can be different. There are also prescription medications that can do the same thing. Sometimes, it can take a month to fully heal an ulcer, although it often does not take that long.  

Stomach ulcers can be very troubling as a source of both pain and internal bleeding. When identified during an endoscopic evaluation, your physician may counsel you on various strategies to promote healing.

One of the cornerstones of gastric ulcer healing is acid suppressors and these generally should be taken twice a day (often about 30 minutes before breakfast and dinner) for about 2 months...though this should be reviewed with your physician. In addition, sometimes a bacteria called Helicobacter pylori can cause gastric ulcers--this may require antibiotics along with acid suppressant medicines. Common offending medicines such aspirin, ibuprofen, or aleve can cause ulcers and these may need to be stopped. Ideally, avoidance of inhaled tobacco and excessive alcohol will help as well. Lastly, if your GI doctor identifies gastric ulcers on endoscopy, he or she may want to repeat an upper endoscopic exam about 3 months from the last exam to make sure things are healing as they should.

Eliminate stress and change your diet.

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) such as Omeprazole and Pantroprazole are typically the first-line treatment for ulcers. Over time, ulcers can become larger, cause pain, cause bleeding, or perforated (rupture) so treatment and surveillance by your primary care physician or a gastroenterologist is usually recommended.

If you were diagnosed with ulcers, then whomever diagnosed them should be treating them. If you were not told how to treat the ulcers, then it make me wonder if you even have ulcers. Many people are told that they have ulcers, but without actually proving the presence of ulcers. Symptoms alone cannot make a diagnosis of ulcers. But if you actually have a stomach ulcer, then the treatment is to lower acid in the stomach with daily pill of proton pump inhibitor such as omeprazole or pantoprazole.
