Some ulcers are caused by bacterial infection and can be treated with antibiotics. I wish her the best.

Most ulcers in kids are caused by the Heliobacter Pylori. It takes quite strong antibiotics, together with proton pump inhibitors, to wipe those out. Usually 8-10 days.Heng Heng Heng wrote: ↑Tue May 29, 2018 8:47 am Some ulcers are caused by bacterial infection and can be treated with antibiotics. I wish her the best.

Treatment
The good news is that most H. pylori-related ulcers are curable with treatment that combines two different kinds of antibiotics and an acid suppressor. The antibiotics are taken over a 1- to 2-week period and the antacid is given for 2 months or longer. The ulcer may take 8 weeks to heal, but the pain usually goes away after a few days or a week.
To be sure the treatment has worked, doctors may order a stool test to verify the absence of H. pylori. If symptoms last or get worse, doctors might do a follow-up endoscopy 6 to 12 months later to check for H. pylori.

Middle of the range frequency of deaths in Cambodia - 26-32 deaths per million in 2012, or about 300-500 deaths in 2012. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peptic_ul ... HO2012.svg
If you have money, try Central hospital on 154 or Khema clinic on 294, if for nothing more than a second opinion.
