Et gi vill ominös Schëlder déi weisen datt Dir e Gastroenterologe muss gesinn an an dësem Post léiert Dir op wéi eng Symptomer oppassen. E Gastroenterolog ass e medizinesche Fachmann an Dokter deen eng rigoréis an extensiv Ausbildung gemaach huet fir ze léieren wéi een medizineschen Ëmstänn am Zesummenhang mam Magen-Darmtrakt verwalten, behandelen an heelen. Dës Beräicher enthalen den Darm, de Mo, d'Liewer, d'Speiseröh, an de Rektum.
Mat esou engem Titel erfuerdert iwwer 5 Joer Ausbildung an "intern Medezin" an "Gastroenterologie" (no der Ofschloss vun der medizinescher Schoul); GI Dokteren bidden aussergewéinlech Betreiung a Behandlung a si meeschtens méi erfollegräich wéi Dokteren wann et ëm d'Diagnostik an d'Behandlung vu gastrointestinale Komplikatiounen kënnt.
Inhaltsverzeechnes
Gastroenterologen kréien spezialiséiert Ausbildung an "Endoskopie" wat d'Praxis ass fir e klengen a schmuele, awer flexibelen "Tube" mat enger agebauter Kamera ze benotzen, déi benotzt gëtt fir de GI-Trakt während Prozeduren, Operatiounen oder diagnostesche Tester ze navigéieren fir ze kucken ob iergendeen Krankheeten oder Wuesstem präsent sinn.
Wann et ëm gastrointestinal Zesummenhang medizinesch Probleemer kënnt, d'Behandlung vun engem Gastroenterologe suergt datt Dir déieffektivste Behandlung méiglech kritt wéi Dir d'Behandlung vun engem medizinesche Fachmann kritt deen déi eenzegaarteg an déif Trainingserfarung huet, déi Iech iwwersetzt datt Dir souwuel qualitativ héichwäerteg wéi "iwwergräifend" Behandlungsversuergung kritt fir all GI-relatéierte medizinesche Komplikatiounen déi Dir begéint.
Et ass statistesch bewisen duerch d'Benotzung vu Studien datt Gastroenterologen Kolonoskopien a ëmfaassend Betreiung fir Magen-Darmprobleemer mat engem méi héijen Erfollegsquote maachen am Verglach mat der Behandlung(en) déi vun aneren Aarte vun Dokteren geliwwert ginn. Wat dat fir Iech bedeit ass datt Dir Behandlung kritt, déi d'Präsenz vu Kriibs oder Polypen präzis erkennt, wärend d'Chance vun enger medizinescher Komplikatioun aus der Behandlung reduzéiert gëtt (GI-behandelte Patienten kënnen och erwaarden manner Zäit ze verbréngen d'Spidol).
An dësem Schreiwen wäerte mir déi "Top 15 Warnschëlder déi Dir braucht fir e Gastroenterolog ze gesinn", déi Iech hëllefen ze bestëmmen ob Dir d'Symptomer vun enger medizinescher Komplikatioun hutt, déi d'Opmierksamkeet an d'Behandlung vun engem GI erfuerderen. Dokter.
Wann Dir fir d'éischt ufänkt nei geformte "Péng" ze erkennen oder all Schëlder / Symptomer, déi aus der Verdauungstraktregioun kommen, wéi Heartburn, Bauchschmerzen, Diarrho oder Verstopfung, kënnt Dir Iech selwer froen ob Dir e regelméissegen Dokter sollt besichen oder net. Internist oder e Gastroenterolog (Verdauungsspezialist). Wien Dir wielt fir Är Konditioun(en) ze diagnostizéieren am Ufank vun hinnen entstinn kann op eng Rei vu Faktoren variéieren.
An e puer Situatiounen, déi richteg Entscheedung fir en Dokter oder e Gastroenterolog ze gesinn, kann onkloer sinn, awer hei ënnen wäerte mir Iech hëllefen d'Symptomer ze verstoen fir op Magen-Darm-Problemer ze kucken, déi vun engem GI Dokter diagnostizéiert a behandelt solle ginn.
Wann Dir just elo Symptomer oder Péng am Verdauungsgebitt fir d'alleréischte Kéier erliewt, da kann den éischte Schrëtt sinn, Berodung vun Ärem primären Dokter ze sichen, wéi Äre primäre Fleegedokter oder Internist.
Dëst wäert hoffentlech en Dokter sinn, mat deem Dir eng Relatioun mat der Zäit opgebaut hutt, well hien / hatt hätt total Zougang zu Ärer medizinescher a Behandlungsgeschicht déi iwwerpréift ka ginn fir ze bestëmmen wat d'Symptomer verursaacht déi Dir erliewt.
Wann Dir mat Ärem Dokter trefft an him / hatt Är Symptomer liwwert, gëtt eng kierperlech Examen ausgefouert fir d'Bestëmmung ze maachen, ob Tester solle gemaach ginn oder net. Wann den Dokter de kierperlechen Examen ofgeschloss huet an eng gutt Iddi huet wat Iech déi plötzlech gastrointestinal Péng verursaacht, kann hien feststellen datt d'Behandlung muss vun engem Spezialist geliwwert ginn, deen affektive Erhuelungsversuergung ubitt. An dësem Fall wier de "Spezialist" de Gastroenterologe.
Dr vu South Florida recommandéiert datt Individuen, déi konsequent entweder sporadesch oder widderhuelend Ausbréch a virdru diagnostizéierte Konditiounen erliewen (wéi ulcerative Colitis, Crohn's Krankheet oder IBS) sollten direkt Behandlung vun engem Gastroenterolog sichen fir weidere Wuesstum oder Komplikatioun ze vermeiden staark> Reife.
Wärend Ärer Behandlung vum Gastroenterologe wäert hien / hatt Ären Dokter aktualiséieren mam Status vun Ärem Zoustand (en) an de Fortschrëtt, dee gemaach gëtt. Dës Aktualiséierungen hëllefen Äre primäre Fleegedokter e gutt Verständnis vun Ärem Status ze hunn, wat den Dokter hëlleft Iech mat der richteger Pfleeg op der Lëscht als Post-Erhuelung Ënnerstëtzung ze bidden. E puer aner gastrointestinal Krankheeten déi GI Dokteren behandelen sinn Krankheeten déi an der Bauchspaicheldrüs oder der Liewer lokaliséiert sinn.
Wann Äre primäre Fleegedokter de Verdacht huet datt Probleemer an dëse Beräicher entstinn, ass et sécher ze iwwerhuelen datt Dir un e lokale Gastroenterologe fir eng detailléiert Diagnose bezeechent gëtt an dofir kann e Behandlungsplang ausgeschafft ginn.
Jidderee sinn eenzegaarteg Zeeche vu potenziell eeschte Bedéngungen, déi net als "net wichteg" entlooss solle ginn, well jidderee vun den uewe genannte Symptomer kéint zu vill méi schlëmmer Komplikatiounssignaler féieren, wann se net "fréi" diagnostizéiert a behandelt ginn.
Hei drënner wäerte mir iwwerdecken wat all eenzel vun dësen Symptomer bedeiten a firwat et wichteg ass d'Leedung an d'Behandlung vun engem GI Dokter esou séier wéi méiglech ze sichen.
Et gëtt geschat datt insgesamt 60 Millioune Leit an den USA erliewen a leiden Heartburn am Duerchschnëtt op d'mannst eemol pro Mount mat geschätzte 15 Millioune Leit, déi un der Bedingung "deeglech" leiden. Erliewen Symptomer vun sauerem Verdauung (Soidbrennen) si meeschtens typesch ënner schwangere Fraen an eeler Leit.
Et gëtt eng Bedingung genannt "Gastroesophageal Reflux", wat e Kierperbedingung ass, deen d'Bauchsäure verursaacht fir zréck an d'Speiseröh zréckzekommen. Dofir wäerten e puer Leit leider d'Erfahrung vu Symptomer hunn, déi dovunner entstinn, wann dëse Prozess stattfënnt (wat all Dag, wöchentlech oder all Mount kéint sinn).
Ee vun denéischt Zeeche fir e Gastroenterologe fir Heartburn ze gesinn ass d'Erfahrung vun engem erhëtzten Onbequemheet, deen aus der Regioun hannert dem Brustbeen kënnt. Dëst Gefill huet eng Tendenz fir an den Hals an den Hals Beräich ze transitéieren, sou datt Onbequemlechkeet vun iergendenger Aart an dësem Beräich sollt e Warnschëld sinn datt Dir e Gastroenterolog fir Diagnos/Behandlung muss gesinn.
En anert Warnungszeechen vu Säurereflux ass e "sauere" oder "bittere" Goût am Réck vun Ärem Hals, well dëst de Goût vun der Bauchsäure ass. Zënter den erhëtzten Drocksymptomer vum Sodbrennen kënne bis zu e puer Stonnen daueren (a verschlechtert beim Iessen), sou eng konsequent Agitatioun an dësem Beräich sollt Iech froen fir direkt diagnostesch Tester vun engem GI Dokter ze sichen.
Wann Dir esou Symptomer 2 oder méi Mol pro Woch erliewt, oder Gewiichtsverloscht erliewt, Bluttverloscht oder Liewensmëttel hänken, da kënnt Dir e Fall vu Heartburn hunn, dat ass ganz eescht. Wann esou Symptomer entstinn, kënnt Dir méiglecherweis en Zoustand hunn, bekannt als "Gastroesophageal Reflux Krankheet (oder" GERD fir Schéiss).
Ier Dir d'exakt Ursaache vun der GERD oder der Gastroesophagealer Refluxkrankheet ufänke kënnt, musst Dir als éischt verstoen wat d'Ursaache vum Sodbrennen sinn. Eng Majoritéit vun Individuen wäert d'Agitatioun vum Sodbrennen fillen am Fall wou d'Speiseröhnfërderung a Kontakt mat Bauchflëssegkeete fir eng verlängert Zäit .
Dës Mo Flëssegkeeten besteet aus e puer verschiddene Materialien dorënner digestive Zesummenhang Enzymen a Seier. Well d'Magasäure a Kontakt mat der Schleimhaut vun der Speiseröh bleift, kann eng Verletzung vun der Speiseröh optrieden, wat zu enger onwuelbarer, brennender a schmerzhafter Sensatioun resultéiert.
Wärend e muskuläre Ventil no ënnen vun der Speiseröh (bekannt als "Lower Esophageal Sphincter" oder "LES") Säure am Mo an ewech vun der Speiseröh hält (wann et richteg funktionnéiert), ass dëst net de Fall wann en Individuum huet entweder "Gastroesophageal Reflux Krankheet" oder "GERD" wéi de "LES" huet d'Tendenz regelméisseg ze relaxen, wat et erlaabt datt de Bauchsäure zréck an d'Speiseröhre kënnt.
Esou e Symptom soll sou séier wéi méiglech vun engem GI Dokter behandelt ginn fir d'Entwécklung vu weidere Komplikatiounen ze stoppen.
Wann Dir Äre GI Dokter besicht, gëtt e Behandlungs-/Erhuelungsplang op Basis vun den diagnostesche Resultater formuléiert.
Wann Dir Iech selwer méi wéi zweemol d'Woch fir Sodbrennen selwer medikamentéiert wéi dat eleng ass en Zeechen datt Dir vun engem Gastroenterologe behandelt muss ginn. Bedéngungen, déi vun engem erfuerene GI onbehandelt ginn, kënnen potenziell zu enger méi sérieuxer Komplikatioun féieren.
Hutt Dir Probleemer mat Iessen ze schlucken? Schwieregkeeten beim Ofhuelen vu Flëssegkeeten? Hutt Dir sporadesch oder konsequent Schwellung am Halsgebitt? Wann jo, kann dëst méiglecherweis e Warnungszeeche vun engem klengen oder eeschten Zoustand sinn, deen Iech sollt froen fir en Gastroenterologe fir Diagnos ze sichen. "All Zort vu Péng oder Agitatioun, déi aus Drénkwaasser verursaacht gëtt, kann e Warnzeechen vun engem schlëmmen Magen-Darmprobleem sinn", sot den Dr Vikram Tarugu, en erfuerene, Board-zertifizéierten a preisgekréinte Gastroenterolog.
Aner Warnungsschëlder fir ze bemierken datt de Gastroenterologe wësse muss, ass ob Är Schwieregkeete mam Schlucken begleet gëtt mat Hick, Heesheet vum Hals, heefeg Husten oder d'Gefill vu Fëllung nodeems Dir eng ganz kleng Portioun Iessen iessen. Wann eng vun dëse potenziell geféierlech Warnungsschëlder optrieden, méiglecherweis, kéint d'Ursaach aus Speiseröhkrebs sinn. Als esou, wann Dir eng vun dësen Warnungszeechen erliewt, zéckt net Berodung ze sichen vun Ärem Primärdokter oder engem Gastroenterologe wann Dir schonn eng Relatioun mat engem hutt. En ongewéinleche Geroch vum Passage Gas richen? Dëst kéint sinn e Warnungszeechen vun infektiiv Parasiten
Iwwerraschend genuch, am Duerchschnëtt, passéiert déi typesch Persoun all Dag bal 2 Liter Wäert vu Gas, ausser datt Anomalie am Verdauungstrakt stattfannen. Een Warnschëld fir opmierksam ze maachen ass wann Dir Péng oder Unerkennung am Bauchberäich erliewt während Zäite vu Gas passéieren oder wann Dir en Darm mécht.
Ausserdeem, wann d'Darmbewegungen an de Passéierende Gas ugefaang hunn en ongewéinlech schrecklechen Geroch ze hunn, da kéint dëst en Zeeche sinn datt Dir Giardia hutt, wat e Parasit ass deen den Darm irritéiert an infizéiert. Mat Giardia, déi fäeg ass ze verschlechteren wann net behandelt gëtt, sollt e Warnschëld wéi dëst net iwwersinn.
Mir hunn all bloating iergendwann an eisem Liewen erlieft awer wann et persistent gëtt, da gëtt et eng Méiglechkeet datt et eng ënnerierdesch Ursaach gëtt. Wann Dir gemierkt hutt datt Dir eng schwiereg Zäit hutt fir Är Shorts unzedoen, wann Dir just virun e puer Deeg se ouni Probleemer gedroen hutt, da sidd Dir "ausgaang an de Fitnessstudio ze goen" vläicht net Schold.
Bloating trëtt einfach op wann eis Nahrungsaufnahme / Loft ze vill ass an eise Kierper sech net richteg dovunner befreit. Wéi och ëmmer, wann d'Blähungen abrupt ouni offensichtleche Grond ufänkt (Dir hutt eng Zäit laang net giess) a geschitt nieft der Präsenz vu Péng oder Blutt am Hocker, da kéint dëst e Warnschëld sinn datt et Zäit ass en Gastroenterolog ze gesinn.
Esou en Zeechen kéint eventuell bedeiten datt d'Entwécklung vu Zelliekrankheet, GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Krankheet), IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) Verstopfung oder Gallesteen ugefaang huet.
Op all Fall wou Dir Blutt an Ärem Hocker erkennt oder anormal schaarf Péng am Bauchberäich wann Dir Gas passéiert oder en Darm mécht, da musst Dir definitiv vun engem GI Dokter diagnostizéiert a behandelt ginn.
Ee Warnschëld dat vun engem GI Dokter diagnostizéiert soll ginn ass plötzlech, onerwaart an onerklärt Gewiichtsverloscht. Wärend plötzlech Gewiichtsverloscht verschidde aner gesondheetlech Themen zougeschriwwe ka ginn, typesch ass déi bescht Plaz fir no der Wuerzel vum Problem ze sichen den Verdauungssystem.
Dr.
Als esou, wann Dir plötzlech Gewiichtsverloscht erliewt, konsultéiert e Gastroenterolog, fir datt Dir sécher sidd datt et net kriibserreegend oder Chronesch/Zöliakie ass (wat d'Kapazitéite vun Ärem Kierper fir vital Nährstoffer opzehuelen).
Wärend Dir eng Darmbewegung maacht, wier et wahrscheinlech e bëssen beonrouegend fir e puer roudeg Spuren ze bemierken op der Toilettepabeier wéi mir all wëssen datt Blutungen aus esou engem Gebitt net normal ass. Blutungen aus dem Rektumgebitt kann en Zeeche vun engem potenziell geféierleche Conditioun sinn a soll "direkt" diagnostizéiert a behandelt ginn.
Och wann et méiglech ass datt d'Blutungen duerch Hämorrhoiden verursaacht ginn, wann et net ass, wéi en Gastroenterolog ze sichen ass absolut noutwendeg, besonnesch wann d'Blutungen erëm optrieden an wann d'Leit iwwer 40 Joer sinn.
Indigestion (och medezinesch als "Dyspepsie" bezeechent) ass de Begrëff fir eng Bedingung ze beschreiwen déi verschidde verschidde Symptomer involvéiert déi entstinn wärend engem Iessen. E puer vun dëse Symptomer kënnen d'Gefill vun "gestoppt" enthalen wann Dir en Iessen ofgeschloss hutt, nieft entweder engem "Péng" oder "Verbrenne Sensatioun" an der ieweschter Bauchberäich.
Verdauung ass zimmlech e gemeinsame Bedingung bei mëttel bis eeler Erwuessener, mat deem et op enger monatlecher, wëchentlecher oder och alldeeglecher Basis geschitt.
Wann Dir eng vun de folgende Symptomer erliewt wéi d'Berodung an d'Behandlung vun engem GI Dokter ze sichen ass essentiell fir Komplikatioune-Préventioun:
When visiting your GI doctor a treatment/recovery plan will be formulated based upon the diagnostic results.
Possible treatment suggestions may include:
Keep in mind that indigestion and heartburn are two different conditions with each having their own unique symptoms.
However, if you’re experiencing the symptoms of both then it’s possible that you’re suffering from both of the two. Regardless, whether the agitation is minor or severe it’s important that you take such a warning signal seriously and seek treatment from a GI doctor that will help to diagnose and remedy the condition(s).
Nausea is quite an unpleasant experience and can use intense feeling of dizziness, minor to severe discomfort and paint in the abdominal area. On the other hand, often times accompanies by nausea, vomiting is the occurrence of a contraction from the stomach that during times of nausea can help one feel a bit better as the content of stomach is during vomiting is the process in which it’s propelled up thru the esophagus.
Intense and consistent vomiting could possibly be a warning sign of a Gastroenteritis which can be treated by a gastroenterologist. Gastroenteritis is known to be a viral infection that causes inflammation within the digestive tract and can be treated thru the use of medication(s) which will be recommended by the gastroenterologist that you choose to visit.
Are you experiencing a dullish pain in the stomach, weight loss, the undesired to intake food due to pain or nausea/vomiting? If so, this could be a sign of a minor yet serious matter. Such warning signs could possibly mean that you’re suffering from a Peptic Ulcer which can be diagnosed by a gastroenterologist thru the use of an upper GI series or an endoscopy.
If you’re experiencing upper abdominal pains (one of the biggest signs of a stomach ulcer ) be sure that you seek the diagnosis/treatment from a GI doctor so you can have it treated while preventing the possibly of further complications arising from the condition.
Individuals that may have GI disorders can suffer from warnings signs that are both painless and pain-induced. Such symptoms can be diarrhea/constipation (in some cases, irritable bowel syndrome). Such signs, whether they’re painful or not, could possibly be a sign of a condition other then IBS known as “centrally mediated abdominal pain syndrome” (or “CAPS” for short) which used to be medically referred to as “functional abdominal pain syndrome” (FAPS).
CAPS is a gastrointestinal disorder and is typically caused by a change in the nerve impulse sensitivity and will cause intense and frequent pain in the abdominal section which for some individuals will be quite severe.
In some cases, pain can be so intense and persistent that it’ll affect you in the similar way as the pain from a tooth ache as it can consume your focus/life since it has a tendency to “not go away” for extended periods of time. If such warning signs are present, seek counsel from a gastroenterologist where an antidepressant may be prescribed to not only reduce anxiety caused by the pain but to help alleviate the pain all together.
If you’re experiencing the feelings of belching, bloating or flatulence (build-up of gas in the alimentary canal), these could be warning signs that you you could possibly be suffering from a number of different conditions including allergies to certain foods, lactase deficiency, peptic ulcer disease or a H. Pylori Infection. Each of these we’ll cover below more in-depth so you can determine the possible cause(s) of your symptom(s).
Food Allergies – While not typical, the most severe allergic reaction that one can inherit from the ingestion of food is known as “anaphylaxis” which could possibly be life-threatening. Studies have shown that 90% of all allergies related to foods are caused from the ingestion of soy, wheat, shellfish, tree nuts, fish, peanuts, milk and eggs. If pain tends to arise after consuming such food items then this may be a signal that you need to seek the treatment of a gastroenterologist.
Lactase Deficiency – While lactase deficiency is pretty common with an estimated 3 million cases per year alone within the US, it’s an issue that’s brought upon individuals whose body has difficulty with digesting the sugar contents within dairy products. These issues arise in the digestive tract and can be treated by a GI doctor thru the use of recommended off-the-shelf medication(s) or by a prescribed medication (depending on the severity of your condition.
Individuals suffering from “Lactase Deficiency” can expect such warning signs to arise within 30 minutes to 2 hours from the consumption of milk or other food items containing dairy.
While symptoms aren’t always noticeable there are some warning signs that if arise should prompt you to see a gastroenterologist.
If you experience persistent and severe abdominal pain, have difficulty with swallowing or have bloody/black vomit that has the appearance of coffee grounds then seek diagnosis from a GI doctor for treatment as these are all warning signs that need attention before complications arise.
If you experience a yellowing of the eyes/skin then it’s very well possible that this is the warning sign that Jaundice is occurring. Jaundice is a condition in which there’s an excessive amount of bilirubin in the blood which is known, medically, as hyperbilirubinemia.
Bilirubin is a “yellow pigment” substance that affects the color pigmentation in the white of your eyes and your skin tone.
If you’re experiencing such signs of this condition schedule an appointment to see a GI doctor as quickly as possible as if not, further complications could develop which could lead to:
One warning signing of a possibly serious complication that should be diagnosed immediately is pain experienced in the abdominal section with the occurring pain spreading/radiating to your back. Such a feeling is a strong indicator and warning sign of “gallstone pancreatitis ”.
Gallstones are a pretty common cause of pancreatitis and this is caused by gallstones that develop in the gallbladder to block the bile duct which puts a stop to the pancreatic enzymes from being able to travel to your small intestine (which forces them to return to the pancreas).
During this process, these pancreatic enzymes will agitate the pancreas cells which will cause inflammation which can cause a great deal of pain that will radiate from the abdomen to the back. In some cases, this feeling of pain will also be accompanied by a tingling, prickly sensation. If such warning signs arise, seek attention from a physician or preferably a gastroenterologist who will help to diagnose the issue so proper treatment can be prepared/prescribed.
In the event that the gastroenterologist determines that your pancreatitis us due to the gallstones then an ECRP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography) will be performed which is a procedure conducted by the GI doctor to remove the stones.
For heavier/obese women it’s important to take cautious note of any pain that stems from the upper right-hand side of the abdominal sections as such a pain could be the indicator of “gallstone pancreatitis” (a prominent condition for heavier-set women). What’s causing such pain is the process of the gallstones blocking the bile duct which causes a chain reaction as this will stop any/all pancreatic enzymes from traveling to the small intestine providing the enzymes with no choice but to return to the pancreas. If the gallstones travel from the gallbladder to the common bile duct, gallstone pancreatitis can develop which is a condition that can continue to worsen and mature in pain while also leading to further complications if not treated.
If you’re medically considered to be “obese” and have had such pain on a regular or consistent basis, consult a GI doctor as treatment in the form of medication and surgeries are available (depending on the severity of the condition). Only making 1-2 bowel movements per week? Difficulty with going? Pain during defecating?
There are a few signs to look out for and notate when looking for signs of possible gastrointestinal complications. A few of these signs include difficulties with making bowel movements, only making 1-2 bowel movements per week or if you experience pain during defecating. Constipation is considered to be present whenever an individual is making only 1-2 bowel movements per week so if this persists this alone could be a warning sign of “anal fissure”. With an estimated 200,000 cases per year within the US alone, anal fissure is a condition that refers to the tearing in the lining of the anus which can cause an immense amount of pain during all three scenarios we referred above (making bowel movements and pain during throwing-up).
Anal fissures develop throughout the specialized tissues that line both the anus and anal canal and this is called the “anoderm”. The reason this can be (and more than likely “will be”) so painful is because of the over-abundance of nerves located within the anal canal. Diagnosis and treatment from a gastroenterologist is recommended. Typically, diagnosis of this condition can be determined by the physical inspection of area with either medication or surgery being recommended to treat (depending on the severity of the anal fissure).
If you’re experiencing symptoms of a condition that includes intense and regular fevers, nausea/vomiting and diarrhea then notate these warning signs to show a gastroenterologist as these are signs of a possibly serious condition known as “bacterial gastroenteritis” which will need to be treated to prevent complications that could arise.
Bacterial gastroenteritis is a condition that develops and occurs whenever bacteria infiltrates your gut can and initiates an infection. If this occurs, inflammation will develop both in your stomach and intestines which will cause discomfort to say the least. Typical symptoms of “bacterial gastroenteritis” includes severe, extreme and persistent cramps in the abdominal area in addition to diarrhea/
While viruses are responsible for the majority of gastrointestinal infections bacterial infections are nearly just as common. A majority of people refer to bacteria-initiated infections as “food poisoning”.
There are a few different causes of “bacterial gastroenteritis” which can be poor hygiene habits, coming in close contact with pets or animals or from consuming foods/fluids that are contaminated with bacteria (even air-borne bacteria). If such warning signs arise, seek medical attention from a physician or preferably a gastroenterologist so the issue(s) can be properly treated to above any further development of bacterial growth.
First and foremost, any sign(s) of rectal bleeding is “not normal” and should never, in any scenario, be dismissed as a minor or non-severe matter as it’s a serious occurrence that requires the attention and treatment from a gastroenterologist.
One of the most prominent signs and symptoms of “irritable bowel syndrome” (IBS) is rectal bleeding and the presence of blood in the stool. In some circumstances, a warning sign is not making a bowel movement at all or only 1-2 times per week.
Blood expressed from the body caused IBD will appear to be “bright red” while if blood is originating from the upper area of the digestive tract the blood will be darker (dark/black stools). If such a sign has arisen be sure that you notate the darkness of the blood so you can provide this detail to a gastroenterologist who will use this information as a part of the diagnosis and treatment(s). In any case, if bleeding from the rectum is “severe” or if you’re throwing-up blood than this is a sign of a severe condition occurring which needs medical attention “immediately”.
Furthermore, such signs could also be a warning sign that you’re suffering from either “Crohn’s disease” or “ulcerative colitis” which are also conditions that you’ll want to have inspected by a GI doctor. Chron’s disease is a condition affecting 200,000 individuals per year and is a chronic, inflammatory irritable bowel disease that runs alone the digestive tract lining.
Ulcerative colitis is another chronic disease that inflames the bowel area which results in the digestive tract becoming inflamed. If any of the warning signs above are occurring, seek medical attention. You don’t want to take the chance of such conditions maturing in growth/size as not only could further complications arise but you may have to undergo additional treatments which otherwise could’ve been avoided had you have the condition(s) treated early on.
Experience vague or minor abdominal pain with a change in bowel movements last for 3+ months? Any changes in your normal bowel movement habits that are lasting for 3+ months is a sign that your body is changing, or, is changing due to an irregular occurrence/condition that should be looked at by a GI doctor; especially when you’re experiencing changes in bowel movement that are lasting for an extended period of time.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a condition that can spark a significant amount of pain to its victims and will initiate a discomforting agitation feeling in the abdominal area. There are some very common symptoms of having IBS which include constipation, gas and diarrhea (in addition to a pain-induced belly). Having your IBS diagnosed for the severity will help you to have a planned pain-management regiment that will be created for you by the gastroenterologist.
When your stomach is experiencing pain it’s caused from the constipation or the diarrhea although is the painful feeling(s) diminish upon making a bowel movements then more than likely, your symptom(s) are an indicator of your pain being tied to a condition other than IBS (consult a GI doctor for diagnosis). This pain is initiated by contractions which can and will cause intolerable pain that will consume your life, make it difficult to rest and will make it difficult to focus on aspects of life (work for example).
When it comes to your health it’s never a smart idea to over-look symptoms of possible health-related complications and rectal pain, bleeding from the rectum or the presence of blood in your stool are warning signs of a possibly serious complication. If you’re experiencing any of these signs, there’s a possibility that you body is suffering from one or more conditions that include it hemorrhoids, anal fissure, or anorectal cancer (although this is rare).
Hemorrhoids is a condition that should be treated by a GI doctor as Hemorrhoids is a medical condition that means the veins in the rectum and anus have become “swollen” which can cause the veins to bulge which will then result in severe agitation especially during bowel movements. Swollen hemorrhoids may be referred to by your gastroenterologist as “piles” as this is a commonly used medical term for this particular condition.
Hemorrhoids , depending on the severity of you case(if it’s determined by the GI doctor that you in-fact have it), you may undergo an operational procedure where the gastroenterologist will make use of specially designed medical equipment (not that intrusive) to “shrink” and “remove” the hemorrhoids which could actually be done on-site at the GI doctor’s office. Another treatment option is the GI doctor administering an injection in to the hemorrhoid with a specially formulated solution that will result in scarring the hemorrhoid to close it off.
Anal fissure is another condition that could be occurring if bleeding from the rectum is prevalent as this condition is the occurrence of “tearing” in the anus lining which will cause blood to originate out of the rectum which can be noticeable by looking at the stool (is blood noticeable?).
Finally, bleeding from the rectum can “possibly” be a sign of “anorectal cancer ” although this is quite uncommon and not the typical cause of bleeding from the rectal region. “Anorectal cancer” is a malignant infested disease that forms within the tissues and glands of the anus. If you’re suffering with HPV (human papillomaviurs) will increase the chances of “rectum cancer development” so it’s vitally important that you seek diagnosis is warning signs such as rectal bleeding occur.
For elderly/older women, experiencing a bulge or in the rectal area (comparable to a stomach bulge) is a serious sign of either “rectal prolapse” or “vaginal prolapse”; serious yet treatable conditions that can be cured by a gastroenterologist thru the practice of medication(s) or procedural operations.
In the United States it’s estimated that 10% of all elderly women suffer from rectal prolapse with signs ranging from rectal bleeding to the feeling of a “bulge” in the rectal region (noticeable to the touch). Rectal prolapse, specifically, is a condition in which the parts of the large intestine will protrude out of the anus and will cause quite a bit of discomfort, pain, difficulty with making a bowel movement and rectal bleeding.
If such signs occer, don’t procrasitance on receiving treatment. Consult with a GI doctors so treatment preparation(s) can be facilitated.
Vaginal prolapse is another condition that rectal bleeding can be a warning sign of. Vaginal prolapse is a serious condition where the bladder, rectum, urethra, small bowel or uterus will begin to fall out place.
If any of these warning signs occur, it’s time to visit a gastroenterologist so you can receive an accurate diagnosis and treatment.
