some last long time.. some go away on their own but mainly you must take medications to treat them… I have used prilosec for many years.. I have gerd and once had ulcer it healed my ulcer up…. but that doesnt mean it wont come back someday…. more than likely you need medications to treat the ulcer since they get bigger and can hurt alot can cause many problems also good luck !!
