Are ulcers infectious?

Ulcers themselves are not infectious, but they can be caused by infections. For example, peptic ulcers are often associated with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, which can be transmitted through contaminated food or water. Additionally, some ulcers can result from the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or excessive alcohol consumption, rather than an infectious agent. Therefore, while the underlying cause may be infectious, the ulcers themselves are not contagious.
