Depends on what causes it. If its cuz you worry all the time, then get medication to heal them and stop worrying. If its caused by something else like food, sickness, etc., just get medicine to get rid of the sickness and watch what you eat.
Prescripton medication is the best, or over the counter prilosec. It'll heal everything that your stomach acid has caused injury to. If you are overweight, that will cause it. If you are under a lot of stress, that will cause it.
