A bacterium. Helicobacter pylori bacteria commonly live in the mucous layer that covers and protects tissues that line the stomach and small intestine. Often, the H. pylori bacterium causes no problems, but it can cause inflammation of the stomach's inner layer, producing an ulcer. It's not clear how H. pylori infection spreads. It may be transmitted from person to person by close contact, such as kissing. People may also contract H. pylori through food and water.
Causes of a Bleeding Ulcer. An ulcer occurs when part of the lining of the stomach or intestines becomes deeply eroded. Most people who have an ulcer likely developed it from an infection by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori, or H. pylori. Ulcers can also be caused by regular usage of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs. Ulcers range in size from quite small to an inch or more, but they can cause tremendous discomfort. Most gastrointestinal bleeding comes from ulcers. Medication and lifestyle habits can cause an ulcer to bleed.
