Articles In English Language

• There are three articles in English language which are a, an and the.
• We use the article 'a' before common words which do not begin with a vowel sound.
• We use article 'an' before common words that begin with a vowel sound.
• We use article 'the' for specified or proper nouns.
• As 'ulcer' is a common word beginning with a vowel sound, hence article 'an' will be correct to use here.
