Dong, I was sent to the emergency in April for bleeding ulcer and I didn't go back to the doctor after I was released from 5-day hospitalization, what should I take or do? I was given Nexxium but nahurot na. I don't want sana to take so much medication. If I can remember, I take couple of teaspoons of Manuka Honey a day. Is that okay?
Ate, if you are still experiencing the symptoms of bleeding ulcer--i would suggest you ask for your family physician's counsel. In the meanwhile, you should also try some herbal remedies to help you--
Long thought to aggravate ulcers, cayenne pepper in moderation actually helps heal them in some cases. Stimulating blood flow to bring healing nutrients to the area, this member of the nightshade family can be good therapy for ulcers. Taking 1/4 teaspoon in 1 cup of hot water per day is all it takes.
Cabbage and its juice are also known for their ulcer-healing abilities. Researchers have found that ulcer patients who drink 1 quart of raw cabbage juice a day often heal their ulcers in five days. Those who eat cabbage also have quicker healing times, although not as dramatic as with the juice.
Garden produce rich in flavonoids may be helpful, too. Studies indicate that some bioflavonoids inhibit the growth of H. pylori. These compounds are also useful as anti-inflammatories. Eat red- and purple-colored foods, such as plums, berries, and red cabbage. Parsley and onions are also good sources. Garlic and licorice have also been shown to kill H. Pylori in test tubes.
Bilberry is used frequently in Russia to treat ulcers. It reduces inflammation in the stomach and intestines and protects their fragile mucous membranes. Calendula is also good for ulcers due to its wound-healing ability. It is slightly unpleasant to drink as tea; add calendula tincture to a pleasantly flavored beverage.
+++++
Intake of milk, water, and yes Honey is a good thing. Try evading eating acidic foods in excess kai mao man na mo aggravate sa imung stomach.
