Abstract

Enteric ulcers present a multifaceted landscape encompassing both peptic and non-peptic varieties, demanding a thorough exploration of their manifestations, causes, and pathophysiology. At the forefront of understanding lie pivotal factors such as Helicobacter pylori infection, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs usage, lifestyle choices, and stress, each wielding significant influence over ulcer development and progression. The intricate interplay of these factors underscores the complexity of enteric ulcer etiology. Helicobacter pylori infection—a prevalent culprit—inflicts chronic gastritis and mucosal damage, fostering an environment ripe for ulcer formation. Stress, recognized as a potent modulator of gastrointestinal function, amplifies susceptibility to ulceration via mechanisms involving altered gastric acid secretion and mucosal blood flow. Diagnosis of enteric ulcers demands astute clinical acumen and judicious employment of diagnostic modalities such as endoscopy, biopsy, and non-invasive testing for Helicobacter pylori. Prompt identification and treatment are paramount, emphasizing the critical role of healthcare professionals in orchestrating tailored intervention plans. Treatment strategies encompass a multifaceted approach targeting causative factors and symptom relief. Helicobacter pylori eradication regimens, coupled with acid-suppressing medications and cytoprotective agents, form the cornerstone of pharmacotherapy. Lifestyle modifications, including dietary adjustments and stress management techniques, complement pharmacological interventions to optimize therapeutic outcomes. A holistic understanding of enteric ulcers empowers healthcare professionals to navigate the intricacies of diagnosis and treatment, thereby fostering positive outcomes and enhancing the quality of life for individuals grappling with this debilitating condition. By embracing a comprehensive paradigm encompassing etiology, diagnosis, and management, clinicians stand poised to alleviate suffering and promote wellness in patients afflicted with enteric ulcers
