Morning Burning Or Gnawing Signals
- Ulcer pain often presents as a burning or gnawing sensation in the stomach, especially before breakfast.
- That empty, non-hunger ache can distinguish an ulcer from typical hunger or reflux.
Watch For Post-Meal Worsening
- If stomach pain worsens about 20–30 minutes after eating, consider a gastric ulcer.
- Get evaluated rather than assuming ordinary indigestion when post-meal burning appears.

- Combine these symptoms with burning or morning gnawing to raise suspicion for an ulcer.
