What kind of an ulcer?  Do you mean a stomach ulcer or an ulcer on you foot or leg?  If you mean a stomach ulcer the only way to know for sure you have one is by having an upper GI done.  Without this there is no way to know for sure it is an ulcer and not just something like GERD.  Most stomach ulcers are caused by the HPyloric bacteria and need antibiotics to heal.  Left untreated ulcers can cause serious damage.  Be sure what you have is really an ulcer though before you decide what to do.

It usually is found in the legs and it basically just swelling. A lot of diabetics tend to get it. Keep the area well overed as ulcers may lead to infection and/or amputation. Hope everything is ok

I think dairy products contain calcium. Calcium does something to the acid pump in your stomach, not sure exactly, but I think it produces more acid and aggravates the ulcer. Caffeine does the same. Careful with aspirin products, caffeine, spicy foods, and fats. Do a google search on Calcium and peptic ulcer disease.

No!!!  They could get infected, and lead to more serious problems.  I know of cases where people had to have extremities amputated because of this!\n\nCheck www.webmd.com for some ideas on how to treat this, and if it's that serious, you might want to schedule a visit with your doctor.

Too much of any caffeine can lead to the development of gastritis (irritation/inflammation of the stomach lining) which can lead to ulcer formation. This includes coffee, tea and certain types of sodas/pops.

It can be bad if you have a sensitive stomach or an ulcer. It has a lot of acid in it.

I get ulcers in my mouth. My doctor told me it's allergies. They gave me a great cure. I'v never had my ulcers feel better or go away quicker. It's stuff you can get over the counter. You mix Benidryl and Kaopectate and swish it around in your mouth then spit it out. :^)
