Ileal ulcers are located in the ileum, which is the final section of the small intestine, situated between the jejunum and the cecum. These ulcers can occur due to various conditions, including Crohn's disease, infections, or other gastrointestinal disorders. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, diarrhea, and weight loss, depending on the severity and underlying cause of the ulcers.
