What is Gastroenterology?
Gastroenterology is a branch of medicine that is focused on the disorders of the digestive system, including problems related to organs such as the oesophagus, stomach, small and large intestines, liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas. A gastroenterologist diagnoses and treats a variety of conditions, including acid reflux, irritable bowel syndrome, liver disease, pancreatitis, and gastrointestinal cancers. If surgery is needed, the patient is referred to a surgical gastroenterologist.
When Should I See a Gastroenterologist?
It is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist if you experience any of the following:
- Chronic Abdominal Pain: Ongoing or recurrent abdominal pain that does not improve with medication or dietary changes.
- Chronic Acidity or Heartburn: Persistent burning sensation in the chest or throat, especially if it continues even after taking over-the-counter medicines and/or making lifestyle changes.
- Bloating and Indigestion: Regular pain, heaviness, too much gas, or a feeling of fullness even after small meals.
- Changes in Bowel Habits: Constipation, diarrhoea, or unexplained changes in bowel patterns that are hard to explain and last for several days or weeks.
- Blood in Stool: Dark red, black, or tarry stools, can be a sign of bleeding in the digestive tract and should be evaluated immediately.
- Unexplained Weight Loss: A sudden or gradual loss of weight that is not caused by a conscious change in diet or lifestyle. It is often accompanied by fatigue or a loss of appetite.
- Nausea and Vomiting: Continuous nausea, frequent vomiting, or a feeling of unease in the stomach that does not resolve over time or recurs.
- Difficulty Swallowing: Pain, discomfort or feeling of food getting stuck when swallowing, could indicate a problem in your oesophagus or upper digestive tract.
- Jaundice: Yellowish skin and eyes, usually from liver or bile duct issues, sometimes accompanied by dark urine or pale stools.
- Family History of Digestive Disorders: A family history of gastrointestinal diseases puts you at greater risk and may require screening.

Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions does a gastroenterologist treat?
A gastroenterologist diagnoses and manages disorders of the entire digestive system, including GERD, peptic ulcers, IBS, IBD, pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, hepatitis, fatty liver, cirrhosis, and gastrointestinal cancers.
When should I consult a gastroenterologist?
Consult a gastroenterologist if your digestive symptoms persist beyond a few weeks, recur frequently, are severe, or are accompanied by warning signs such as blood in the stool, unexplained weight loss, or yellowing of the skin or eyes.
How long does recovery take after an endoscopic procedure?
Most endoscopic procedures such as endoscopy and colonoscopy are performed under mild sedation and require minimal recovery time. Patients are typically ready to go home within a few hours and can return to normal activity the following day.
Is emergency gastroenterology care available at Ujala Cygnus Hospitals?
Yes. Our hospitals provide round-the-clock emergency care for acute gastrointestinal conditions including GI bleeding, severe abdominal pain, acute pancreatitis, and biliary emergencies.
What are the common symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders?
Persistent abdominal pain, bloating, acid reflux, nausea, chronic diarrhoea or constipation, blood in the stool, unexplained weight loss, and difficulty swallowing are all symptoms that warrant evaluation by a gastroenterologist.
Can digestive conditions be treated without surgery?
