1. Dull Pain in the Stomach. A feeling of discomfort in the area between your ribs and the navel may be felt if you have an ulcer. The pain in the pit of your stomach can be extremely agonizing after meals when the stomach empties. In many cases, the stabbing pain keeps coming and going spontaneously in frequent intervals.
The symptoms may vary depending on the location of the ulcer: 1  Duodenal ulcers often cause a gnawing pain in the upper stomach area several hours after a meal, and patients can often relieve the pain by eating. 2  Many patients also have heartburn. 3  Gastric ulcers may cause a dull, aching pain, often right after a meal.
