Famed musician Bruce Springsteen is postponing the remainder of his September shows after being diagnosed with peptic ulcer disease.
“The other major cause of peptic ulcer disease is drugs in the class called NSAIDS – non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. So, things like Ibuprofen, naproxen, or even low-dose aspirin can cause peptic ulcers,” explains Scott Gabbard, MD, gastroenterology specialist for Cleveland Clinic.
Dr. Gabbard said peptic ulcer disease occurs when open sores, or ulcers, form in the stomach or the first part of the small intestine.However, when they do, they could have a burning or gnawing feeling in their stomach, bloating, heartburn, nausea or vomiting.When making a diagnosis, there are different tests available, including an endoscopy, breath test or stool test.

It’s incredibly responsive to therapy,” said Dr. Gabbard. “If you’re found to have H. pylori, then the treatment course is a 14-day course of antibiotics, plus an anti-blocking medicine, and that heals the majority of peptic ulcers due to H. pylori.
Dr. Gabbard said for those who develop peptic ulcer disease from another cause, like using NSAIDS, then the course of treatment would be different, but it’s still just as effective.Copyright 2023 by Cleveland Clinic News Service. All rights reserved.
