The healing time for a stomach ulcer varies from person to person. With appropriate treatment and lifestyle modifications, most ulcers heal within 4 to 8 weeks. However, larger or deeper ulcers may take longer to heal. Since yours is taking so long to heal, you will need a proper review by your doctor in order to rule out any underlying causes.
