Symptoms like persistent abdominal pain, changes in bowel habits, rectal bleeding, difficulty swallowing, persistent heartburn, unexplained weight loss, or jaundice should prompt a visit.
Endoscopy is a procedure where a flexible tube with a camera is used to examine the digestive tract. It’s necessary for diagnosing conditions like ulcers, gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and certain cancers.
Dietary changes may include increasing fiber intake, staying hydrated, avoiding trigger foods (like spicy or fatty foods), and maintaining a healthy weight. Lifestyle changes may include regular exercise, managing stress, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
IBS is a chronic disorder characterized by abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. Management may include dietary modifications, stress management, medications, and behavioral therapy.
Gastroenterologists perform colonoscopies to screen for colon cancer and precancerous polyps. Early detection through screening can significantly reduce the risk of developing colon cancer.
