      FAQ's Related to General surgeon

      What are the standard conditions a General Surgeon treats?

      The most common conditions General Surgeons treat include, but are not limited to, hernia, gallbladder stones, appendicitis, piles (hemorrhoids), fissures, fistulas, abdominal pain, thyroid swellings, breast lumps, skin/soft tissue swellings, and gastrointestinal conditions.

      What is laparoscopic (minimal access) surgery, and how is it different from "open" surgery?

      Laparoscopic surgery is defined as a surgical procedure performed through small incisions, utilising a camera and specialised instruments to facilitate the operation. Laparoscopic surgery creates less pain, fewer scars, and allows a faster recovery than open surgery, which requires a larger incision to perform the same procedure.

      What kinds of emergency surgeries do General Surgeons perform?

      General Surgeons deal with emergencies requiring surgical care, such as perforated ulcers, intestinal obstruction, traumatic abdominal injuries, burst appendix, or uncontrolled bleeding.

      Do General Surgeons also do cancer surgeries?

      Yes. General Surgeons often perform the initial surgeries for cancers of the Gastrointestinal system (stomach, colon, liver, pancreas), breast cancer (BC), and thyroid cancer. After the initial surgery, for more advanced cancers, General Surgeons may work with surgical oncologists.
