Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Yes, This is possibly a stomach ulcer.
The reason being history of '' pain sometime goes to back''.This classically appears in posterior wall stomach ulcers or pancreatitis.
I would advise the routine blood and urine tests; stool - routine and for occult blood.
The most important is an Upper GI Endoscopy and ultrasonography of abdomen. This will confirm the diagnosis.
The treatment will depend upon the findings; in addition go for a soft bland diet. Small frequent meals, life without stress as this is one of the most important factor.
I find this answer helpful
