Treatments
Specialised care and treatments offered
PEPTIC ULCER DISEASE
This condition results from sores developing in the lining of the stomach or upper part of small intestine (duodenum). Peptic ulcers arise when there's an imbalance between digestive fluids causing mucosal injury rather than protection.
INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE (IBD)
Inflammatory Bowel Disease refers primarily to two chronic disorders—inflammation of the digestive tract—Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Both cause debilitating digestive tract inflammation but differ in location and depth of tissue affected.
- Affected individuals often report sustained symptoms: abdominal pain/cramps, diarrhea sometimes with blood or mucus, fatigue, weight loss).
- The etiology involves an abnormal immune response where the body's defenses target intestinal tissues causing ongoing inflammation without infection causes directly identified yet genetics play a role.
- An accurate diagnosis involves blood tests for inflammation markers plus imaging studies like colonoscopy which allows visualization/biopsy confirming extent/type of inflammation involved).
- Treatment varies from anti-inflammatory drugs (aminosalicylates), corticosteroids during flares; immunosuppressants; biologic agents targeting specific inflammatory pathways; nutritional support also important in management.)
CELIAC DISEASE
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder triggered by ingestion of gluten—a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye—that damages the small intestine lining. This affects nutrient absorption leading to various systemic issues.
- include chronic diarrhea or constipation, bloating, weight loss, anemia due to nutrient deficiencies; children may experience growth delays.
- The underlying cause is a genetic predisposition plus gluten exposure triggering immune attack on intestinal villi.
- A combination of blood tests, specifically tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG-IgA), followed by an intestinal biopsy confirms diagnosis.
- The cornerstone treatment is strict lifelong adherence to a gluten-free diet avoiding all products containing wheat, barley or rye.
- If untreated,Celiac disease can lead to complications such as osteoporosis or other autoimmune disorders so early diagnosis is crucial.
A carefully managed gluten-free lifestyle helps heal intestinal damage and alleviates symptoms effectively over time.
IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME (IBS)
Irritable Bowel Syndrome is a common disorder affecting the large intestine causing symptoms that interfere with daily routine. It is a chronic condition characterized by abdominal discomfort linked with bowel habit changes.
- The main symptoms include cramping, bloating, gas, diarrhea or constipation, or alternating between both.
- The exact causes remain unclear but factors like stress, certain foods, and gut motility issues contribute.
- Diagnosis generally relies on symptom assessment and exclusion of other conditions via blood tests or colonoscopy if indicated.
- Treatment focuses on symptom relief, including dietary adjustments (low FODMAP diet), fiber supplements, medications for diarrhea or constipation, and stress management techniques.
- Patients are encouraged to maintain a symptom diary to identify personal triggers for better long-term control.
Lifestyle and dietary modifications combined with medical support enable effective management of IBS symptoms for most sufferers.
GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE (GERD)
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, commonly known as GERD, occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the tube connecting your mouth and stomach (esophagus). This backwash of acid can irritate the lining of your esophagus and cause discomfort.
- Symptoms include persistent heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, and sometimes difficulty swallowing.
- Causes often involve a weakened lower esophageal sphincter or lifestyle factors such as diet and obesity.
- Diagnosis is typically made through patient history, physical examination, and may involve endoscopy or pH monitoring tests.
- Treatment options range from lifestyle changes, such as dietary modifications and weight loss, to medications like proton pump inhibitors that reduce acid production.
- Long-term management may include regular monitoring to avoid complications like esophagitis or Barrett’s esophagus.
A well-managed approach to GERD can significantly improve quality of life by controlling symptoms and preventing damage to the esophagus.
