An Ulcer Sign #10: Vomiting Blood
Vomiting is often a deliberate response by the body as it tries to eject certain substances. It is often helpful to us as it helps to eject pathogens and chemicals that might otherwise harm us. Often, it is also a sign that you are quite ill, especially if there is blood in the vomit.
If a severe ulcer is leaking too much then it is likely to show when you vomit. Bleeding internally this way can be very problematic and should be treated with some degree of urgency. Blood in the vomit is not good so if you do spot it, you should arrange to speak with a doctor regardless of the suspected cause.
