The walls of the stomach contain a thick layer of mucus. The stomach itself is filled with pepsin and Hydrochloric acid in order to digest food. The thick layer of mucus prevents these acids from digesting the wall of your stomach.
Occasionally this mucus recedes and some of the acid can get in. When this occurs, it causes a Peptic Ulcer.
