What Is Gastroenterology?

Gastroenterology studies disorders that affect the digestive and excretory systems, including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, rectum, pancreas, gallbladder, bile duct, and liver. This encompasses a variety of difficulties such as heartburn, ulcers, excessive weight loss, excessive weight gain, diarrhea, constipation, jaundice, colon polyps, and cancer in the digestive system or liver. The function of the GI system is to digest food and transport it to other parts. It helps in the absorption of nutrients and minerals. Further, it helps to remove waste products from the body.

FAQ:

What do Gastroenterologists do?

A Gastroenterologist is a specialist in gastrointestinal diseases. Gastroenterologists treat all the organs in your digestive system, including your GI tract (esophagus, stomach and intestines) and biliary organs (your liver, bile ducts, pancreas and gallbladder.)

Why would I be referred to a Gastroenterologist?

You should see a gastroenterologist if you have any symptoms of a digestive health disorder or if you need colon cancer screening. Often, seeing a gastroenterologist leads to more accurate detection of polyps and cancer, fewer complications from procedures and less time spent in the hospital.

Gastritis, or gastric problem, is a condition that causes swelling, redness, and general inflammation of the stomach lining. The symptoms of the gastric problem include bloating, nausea, and indigestion. Doctors recommend dietary modifications and other medications for treatment.

Poor diet, stress, irregular eating habits, smoking, and certain medical conditions such as obesity and Helicobacter pylori infection can contribute to gastric problems. A history of chronic constipation or diarrhea, eating large amounts of spicy foods, and consuming alcohol also contribute to gastric problems.

What is the best test for stomach problems?

Standard imaging tests for gastric conditions include upper gastrointestinal series (UGI), ultrasounds, MRIs, CT scans and X-rays. For an even clearer picture of the gastrointestinal tract, a barium swallow or barium enema may be used in conjunction with an X-ray.
