What Digestive conditions and Gastrointestinal disorders are treated under gastroenterology? +
Gastroenterology encompasses the medical diagnosis and management of conditions affecting the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. At Nano Hospitals Bangalore, gastroenterologists treat chronic acid reflux (GERD), gastritis, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), fatty liver, gallstones, and gastrointestinal tumors.
What is an upper GI Endoscopy test and when is it recommended? +
An upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure using a thin, flexible camera to inspect the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Gastroenterologists at Nano Hospitals Bangalore perform high-definition endoscopies to investigate persistent heartburn, chronic stomach pain, unexplained swallowing difficulties, suspected peptic ulcers, and upper GI bleeding.
What is a Colonoscopy procedure and why is it performed? +
A colonoscopy is an endoscopic examination of the large intestine and rectum using a flexible high-definition scope. Gastroenterologists at Nano Hospitals Bangalore conduct outpatient colonoscopies to screen for colorectal cancer, identify polyps, evaluate chronic diarrhea or constipation, investigate lower gastrointestinal bleeding, and diagnose inflammatory bowel disease.
What causes non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and how is it treated? +
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) involves excessive fat accumulation in liver cells, frequently associated with metabolic factors like obesity, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Untreated NAFLD can progress to liver inflammation (NASH) and cirrhosis. Nano Hospitals Bangalore provides comprehensive fatty liver management incorporating dietary planning, exercise protocols, and medical therapies.
What are the primary symptoms of gallstones and how are they surgically treated? +
Gallstones cause sharp upper right abdominal pain—often triggered by high-fat meals—accompanied by nausea, vomiting, indigestion, or fever. At Nano Hospitals Bangalore, gallstones are diagnosed via abdominal ultrasound and definitively treated using laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a minimally invasive keyhole surgery that removes the gallbladder with minimal recovery time.
What is an ERCP procedure and when is it required for bile duct disorders? +
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an advanced endoscopic procedure combining fluoroscopic X-rays and endoscopy to diagnose and treat diseases of the bile ducts and pancreas. Gastroenterologists at Nano Hospitals Bangalore utilize ERCP to remove common bile duct stones, place biliary stents, and relieve ductal strictures without open surgery.
Can GERD and chronic acidity be managed effectively without surgery? +
Yes, the vast majority of GastroEsophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and chronic acidity cases are successfully controlled without surgical intervention. Specialist gastroenterologists at Nano Hospitals Bangalore prescribe acid-suppressive medications (such as PPIs), recommend specific dietary and sleep modifications, and design weight-management strategies, reserving surgery only for refractory cases.
