    Ulcer is a lesion or wound to various body tissues, such as your skin or it could be in your intestines. A Curling's ulcer is a type of ulcer to the duodenum which is part of the upper gastrointestinal tract. It is often times a complication brought about from severe burns or cases of trauma in the body.
