What is an Esophageal Ulcer?
An esophageal ulcer is a type of open sore that develops on the inner lining of the esophagus, the muscular tube connecting the throat to the stomach. These ulcers can result from the erosion of the protective mucosal layer lining the esophagus, allowing stomach acid and digestive juices to damage the underlying tissues
How are esophageal ulcers caused?
Esophageal ulcers can develop when the esophagus is repeatedly exposed to stomach acid, often due to conditions like hiatal hernias or GERD (severe heartburn). Medications like aspirin and ibuprofen, as well as infections such as candida and herpes, can also contribute. Ingesting corrosive substances, mainly affecting children, and certain surgeries or foreign bodies can lead to ulcers. It’s crucial to address the underlying causes for effective treatment.
Symptoms:
- Loss of appetite
- Difficulty swallowing
- Heartburn
- Nausea
- Shortness of breath
- Sore throat
- Sour taste in the mouth

- Weight loss
Finding Relief:
Gurpanthbir Singh sought the expertise of Dr. Raghav Thukral for persistent symptoms indicative of an esophageal ulcer. Esophageal ulcers, a subset of peptic ulcers, result from the erosion of the esophageal lining, allowing stomach acid to irritate the gastrointestinal wall. Having suffered for an extended period, Gurpanthbir had consulted multiple gastroenterologists without experiencing lasting relief. Dr. Raghav Thukral took on the case with a commitment to uncovering the root cause and providing a tailored treatment plan.
Ayurvedic Treatment Approach:
Dr. Raghav Thukral adopted a comprehensive approach, combining conventional medical care with alternative therapies and lifestyle adjustments. After five months of collaborative treatment, Gurpanthbir Singh experienced a remarkable improvement in his condition. The symptoms gradually subsided, and he reported an enhanced quality of life. Dr. Raghav Thukral’s holistic approach contributed to the patient’s overall well-being.
