Causes may include ulcers, infections, inflammation, medication side effects, or other gastrointestinal disorders.
Diagnosis is based on medical history, physical examination, lab tests, imaging, and sometimes upper endoscopy and colonoscopy to identify the source.
Treatment depends on the cause and severity, including medications, nutritional support, and sometimes surgical intervention for severe cases.
