Symptoms such as abdominal pains, heartburn, and other problems like swallowing difficulties, not losing weight for any known reason, blood or pain in the rectum, chronic bouts of diarrhoea, constipation, or if anyone in your family has been diagnosed with cancers in the gastrointestinal real,m would put you to a gastroenterologist.
He usually does endoscopy, colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, liver biopsy, ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography), and capsule endoscopy, among other procedures.
A colonoscopy is a procedure used to observe the inside or interior aspect of the entire colon and rectum. It helps pick up polyps, colorectal cancer, and other abnormalities. This procedure is recommended for age-45 persons or anyone in the family with a history of significant incidents involving the subject.
Acid reflux (GERD), ulcers, IBS (Irritable bowel syndrome), IBD (inflammatory bowel disease; Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) and hepatitis; all these diseases, in addition to pancreatitis, gallstones and celiac disease, are treated by the gastroenterologists.
Pain is not a common symptom that is faced after such procedures. Instead, a patient is sedated or anaesthetised to lose discomfort during procedures like endoscopy and colonoscopy.
However, the recommendation is every 10 years until they hit age 45. At that point, the guidelines recommend a colonoscopy screening that may be part of a whole process in several office visits before age 45 for some people at higher risk.
