You Should Know 5 Simple Ways To Prevent Piles

Hemorrhoids are swollen, inflamed veins that are situated in the anus and lowest portion of your rectal canal. They can be highly painful and bleed when inflamed when the vein walls grow, frequently as a result of increasing pressure in the lower rectum.

Hemorrhoids frequently result from straining during bowel movements, which is exacerbated worse by constipation, which makes stools that are hard and challenging to pass. Hemorrhoids can also cause or make the pain from them worse if there has been ongoing or chronic diarrhea.

Adopt lifestyle practices that relieve pressure on your lower rectum, such as softening your stools to make them easier to pass, prevent hemorrhoids and lessen the pain if you do experience a flare-up. Here are the suggestions made by Hemorrhoids Treatment in Punjab.

  1. Check your nutrition.

You should reevaluate your diet’s fiber intake if you experience formed yet soft and simple-to-pass feces. If your daily totals aren’t adequate, try increasing your intake of fruits, veggies, and foods made entirely of whole grains. Depending on your age and gender, different amounts may be advised, but an average adult diet of 2,000 calories a day allows for 25 grams of sugar daily.

And if you need any more encouragement to eat a diet high in fiber, studies have shown that diets high in oats, barley, and other whole grains can also lower cholesterol and help you lose weight.

  1. Do not forget to go to the bathroom.

For a while, your body will allow you to resist the urge to urinate, but delaying the inevitable has drawbacks. Your stool gets drier and tougher the longer it stays in your bowel. This makes it challenging to pass the stool and pushes you to strain, which can result in hemorrhoids or make them worse.

  1. Regular exercise

A sedentary lifestyle causes waste to go through your colon more slowly than it would with moderate exercise. Try exercising vigorously by riding, swimming, or practicing yoga. Regular exercise can also assist you in losing the extra pounds that can be aggravating your hemorrhoids.

Avoid exercises that increase abdominal pressure, such as weightlifting-style squats, as these can raise your overall risk of developing hemorrhoids.

  1. Stay hydrated.

Drink six to eight glasses of water daily for soft stools. Alcohol should be consumed in moderation, but too much can cause dehydration and constipation. If you increase your intake of fiber, be careful to drink the recommended quantity of water each day because fiber without liquids may create stiff stools.

  1. When you can, stand up.

Long periods of sitting, such as when using the restroom, place additional strain on your anus. If you work at a desk, take breaks to get up and move around so you don’t read all the time while sitting on the toilet.

यदि आप एंडोस्कोपी की जाँच करवाने के बारे में सोच रहे हो तो पंजाब में एंडोस्कोपी की कीमत का पता जरूर लगाना।

Exploring the Surgical Dilemma and Potential Solutions

Surgeons face a surgical dilemma when it comes to addressing gallbladder disease in high-risk patients, such as those with cirrhosis. The choice between a cholecystectomy (surgical removal of the gallbladder) and a less invasive cholecystostomy (gallbladder depletion) requires careful deliberation. In this blog article, we will delve into the surgical quandary that surrounds cholecystectomy or cholecystostomy in high-risk patients, evaluating potential solutions and considerations from many angles.

Understanding the Surgical Dilemma

Cholecystectomy and cholecystostomy are two distinct techniques for managing gallbladder disease. Cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder, whereas cholecystostomy is the creation of a temporary drainage tube to relieve the gallbladder of excess fluids. The decision gets more complicated in high-risk cirrhotic patients due to a variety of reasons such as increased risk of bleeding, impaired liver function, and complications associated with sedation.

The Importance of an Individualized Approach

Adopting an individualised strategy when faced with the surgical problem of cholecystectomy is critical. Each patient’s condition, severity of symptoms, and overall health should be thoroughly evaluated. Collaboration among the patient, gastroenterologists, hepatologists, and surgeons is critical to achieving the best possible outcome.

Potential Solutions and Considerations:

  1. Preoperative Optimization: Preoperative optimisation is critical in cases when cholecystectomy is judged feasible. This may entail monitoring cirrhosis-related problems such as portal hypertension, coagulopathy, and hepatic encephalopathy through medication modifications, nutritional assistance, and other therapeutic measures.
  2. Minimally Invasive Techniques: Surgeons can study the use of minimally invasive methods, such as laparoscopic cholecystectomy, in carefully selected cirrhotic patients to reduce the risks associated with surgery. Laparoscopic techniques provide advantages such as reduced blood loss, smaller incisions, and faster recovery compared to customary open surgery.
  3. Cholecystostomy as a Bridge: In certain high-risk cases where cholecystectomy isn’t practical, cholecystostomy can act as a bridge to manage acute symptoms. It gives temporary help by draining the gallbladder and can be followed by an additional evaluation to decide the requirement for conclusive treatment.
  4. Close Postoperative Monitoring: Regardless of the selected approach, close postoperative monitoring is important. High-risk patients with cirrhosis require careful perception of complications such as infection, bleeding, or worsening liver function. Regular follow-up consultation and communication between the patient, healthcare suppliers, and surgical team are important for ideal intercession if any issues emerge.
  5. Shared Decision-Making: Shared decision-making among patients and healthcare providers is essential in exploring the surgical dilemma. Giving patients comprehensive information about the risks, advantages, and potential outcomes of cholecystectomy enables them to actively participate in the decision-making process in view of their qualities, preferences, and overall health objectives.

Conclusion

The surgical dilemma encompassing cholecystectomy in high-risk patients with cirrhosis requires careful consideration of individual factors, potential solutions, and shared decision-making. A patient-centered approach, taking into account the patient’s overall health, symptoms, and objectives, is crucial. At GastroGynae, we comprehend the complexities of managing gallbladder illness in high-risk patients.

Myths And Facts: 4 Things You Should Need To Know About Cirrhosis

The liver is one of the primary internal organs in the human body and the primary blood filter that narcotics and detoxifies alcohol and other potentially dangerous combinations. It is an essential element of the digestive system because it generates bile, which aids in breaking fatty foods. It is also a crucial part of the immune system since it helps to remove germs and viruses from the blood. But many people live very unhealthy lives, exacerbating liver diseases like cirrhosis and requiring liver transplant surgery. Additionally, most people have yet to discover many cirrhosis myths and realities. If you fall into that category, you should read this blog.

  1. Myth: No symptoms mean that the person does not have cirrhosis. A person may suffer from liver cirrhosis without any prior symptoms. The liver performs adequately to maintain the human body’s daily functioning despite many people having liver cirrhosis. In such conditions, fatigue is an easy and significant symptom of cirrhosis. When the liver becomes dysfunctional, a person experiences other severe symptoms like swelling of the legs, bleeding, confusion, fluid build-up in the body, and more.
  2. Myth: Cirrhosis does not impact those who do not consume alcohol. Though alcoholism is a potent reason that causes liver cirrhosis, it is not the only reason. Extreme scarring of the liver can be caused by different injuries made to the liver. Inappropriate diet, congenital infections, iron or copper overload, hepatitis B or C, jaundice, and other prevalent causes of liver cirrhosis. They can affect a person who does not even take alcohol.
  3. Myth: The liver will regenerate itself after cirrhosis. The liver is a highly regenerative organ but can only regenerate itself when the scar tissue is not extensive. Also, the liver has to be always healthy to perform well and recover from the severity of the disorder. Once the liver is affected by cirrhosis, the regeneration process of the liver becomes entirely restricted. Therefore, in most conditions, cirrhosis cannot be changed. However, maintaining proper precautions and a healthy diet can improve your situation.
  4. Myth: Gaining weight during cirrhosis is good. A person with cirrhosis might gain weight owing to fluid retention in the body, which is a reason to worry about. Similarly, if the person eats too many calories, it leads to depositions of fat on the liver and can further injure the liver. Both signs and situations testify that gaining weight during cirrhosis is not good.

 Staying under a good liver surgeon, maintaining a proper medical check-up, and dietary measures will help the person avoid the disease’s severity. At Ludhiana Gastro & Gynae Centre, Liver Cirrhosis is conducted by the most efficient and skilled doctors. Here, we have a team of the best medical staff who will assist you from the time of your diagnosis till you have entirely recovered

You Should Know the 5 Easy Ways To Avoid Hemorrhoids

If you have hemorrhoids, there are several various treatments that you can try. On the other hand, if you already have hemorrhoids, you probably advise others to completely avoid them.

Hemorrhoids in the anal canal are swollen, inflamed venous cushions that can occasionally bleed, hurt, itch, and be painful. But these irritating symptoms can be prevented with a few simple lifestyle changes. Vein swelling or inflammation around the anus is a common symptom of hemorrhoids or piles. Even lumps might be left behind by the piles in and around the anus region. There’s a chance it will get better on its own, but some folks might need medical help for the Piles Treatment in Ludhiana.

Explains five easy methods for avoiding hemorrhoids and how changing your lifestyle can have a massive effect.

Can hemorrhoids be prevented?

Hemorrhoids affect everybody. There are a variety of internal and external blood arteries close to your anus that supply the entire region with blood. These blood vessels don’t typically cause problems that can be very painful until they start to swell and get irritated. Here are some steps you can take to stop the enlargement of those blood vessels.

  1. Whenever necessary, use the restroom.

Even though it sounds like common sense, many people choose to ignore it. Delaying your bathroom visit may cause your stool (poop) to dry out and solidify in your digestive tract, making it more difficult to move. If you have trouble passing your feces, your risk of developing hemorrhoids increases.

  1. Avoid turning the restroom into a reading space:

Instead of treating your visit to the bathroom as a lengthy vacation, think of it as a necessity. If there are magazines or books stacked on the water tank of your toilet, you might want to consider relocating them. Don’t use your phone in the bathroom to play games, browse Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, or Twitter.

  1. Check your diet

Your stool needs to be soft and easy to travel through to prevent hemorrhoids. Choose a healthy diet, and stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, to obtain the ideal consistency.

The primary factor is a lack of fiber. For instance, if you get constipation, try increasing your intake of fiber from fruits, whole grains, and leafy green vegetables. Fiber can prevent constipation, which increases straining and increases the risk of hemorrhoids.

  1. Continue to exercise to keep your body active.

Hemorrhoids are among the bowel and digestive diseases that moderate exercise helps to treat or avoid. Everything slows down when you are inactive, even your bowel movements.

Exercise keeps the waste in your intestinal tract moving. You can avoid constipation and dry, hard stools as a result of this. Choose an active lifestyle whether it involves a bike, yoga, short-distance running, walking, or any other activity.

  1. See a doctor

Visit Doctors for Haemorrhoids in Ludhiana and have your symptoms assessed if your symptoms change or your bleeding worsens. There are non-surgical methods of treating hemorrhoids as well. To rule out other diseases, you might need a diagnosis.

Other lifestyle recommendations to avoid hemorrhoids

Some activities you can take each day will also help, such as:

  • Drink more water. Fiber without water makes stools hard.
  • Avoid long periods of sitting.
  • Ask your gastro doctor about taking fiber supplements.
  • When you go to the restroom, elevate your feet on a low stool or chair to reduce pressure and move your stool without additional effort.

What Are Hemorrhoids? Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment

Hemorrhoids are enlarged, swollen veins in the rectum or around the anus. They are usually brought on by pressure on the veins, similar to the pressure that results from trying to expel a bowel movement. They may have been referred to as piles.

Blood vessel tissue is a typical component of our anatomy. It is believed to hold stool in when we are not having a bowel movement and to cushion muscles when we do. Hemorrhoids typically go undetected until they swell.

Hemorrhoids are a very common condition that gets worse with age. The majority of people will eventually experience hemorrhoids, even if they may not show any symptoms. Hemorrhoids are estimated to be visible in 50% of all persons over the age of 50.

Hemorrhoids are frequently experienced by pregnant women, although they usually go away after childbirth.

Hemorrhoids come in two main variants:

  • Internal: Inside the rectum hemorrhoids. Typically, they go unnoticed.
  • External: Hemorrhoids in the anus-region tissue.

What causes hemorrhoids?

Hemorrhoids could be the result of anything that puts strain on the veins in and around the rectum and anus. Your risk of having them increases as you age.

Common cause include:

  • Sitting for too long
  • Straining with bowel movements
  • Chronic constipation or diarrhea
  • Obesity
  • Pregnancy
  • Regular, heavy lifting
  • A diet lacking fiber
  • Anal intercourse
  • Liver disease
  • Family history of hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoid Symptoms

There could be several varieties, and each type could have a different set of symptoms. A vicious cycle of symptoms can start with itching brought on by edema. Scratching, incorrect cleaning or no cleaning at all may make ititch worse. The itching could lead to more bleeding and irritation.

Internal hemorrhoids are typically not noticeable unless they emerge from the anus. Itching or scratching might potentially cause the veins to become strained or broken, which could lead to apparent bleeding. If you have bleeding hemorrhoids, you may notice blood in the toilet bowl, on the toilet paper, or in your stool.

External hemorrhoids may cause:

  • Irritation
  • Itching
  • Pain or discomfort
  • Protrusion or hard lump near the anus
  • Rectal bleeding
  • Swelling around the anus

Prolapsed hemorrhoids may cause:

  • Pain or discomfort
  • Bulging that you can feel outside the anus

How to Diagnose Hemorrhoids

Some hemorrhoid symptoms can also be brought on by other, more serious illnesses like colon cancer. It’s crucial to discuss your symptoms with your healthcare physician to rule out any potential reasons. Sometimes your symptoms and a physical examination can detect hemorrhoids, but you could also need additional tests.

  • Physical exam 
  • Digital rectal exam (DRE)
  • Anoscopy or proctoscopy
  • Sigmoidoscopy 
  • Colonoscopy

Home Remedies

With simple lifestyle changes and over-the-counter medicines, mild symptoms can frequently be successfully treated at home. Before beginning any treatment, it’s essential to receive a diagnosis, especially if you are bleeding or have never had hemorrhoids before.

  • Eat high-fiber foods
  • Fiber supplements
  • Good personal hygiene
  • Hemorrhoid Cream
  • Warm Sitz Bath
  • Laxatives
  • Pain Relievers
  • Use a step stool

Minimally Invasive Treatments

Pain relief and other hemorrhoid-related symptoms may not always be fully achieved by using home remedies. It is necessary to remove hemorrhoids that are prolapsed or that bleed excessively. In-office removal techniques are possible in some cases.

Hemorrhoid banding

A special applicator is used to pinch the root of the hemorrhoid in a small rubber band during hemorrhoid banding, also known as band ligation.

Endoscopy

Endoscopy: A little, flexible tube will be inserted into your rectum by your doctor. Hemorrhoids can be removed using the tube, which has a tiny camera and is compatible with small tools.

Laser, infrared, or bipolar coagulation

Hemorrhoids are reduced with these procedures using infrared radiation, heat, or a laser. The hemorrhoids will gradually stiffen, shrivel, and fall off following treatment.

Sclerotherapy

A chemical solution is injected into the hemorrhoid during sclerotherapy, causing it to contract and leave behind a scar.

The doctors for hemorrhoids in Ludhiana may recommend a hemorrhoidectomy if home remedies and minimally invasive office procedures are ineffective. Piles Treatment in Ludhiana reduces extra tissue that contributes to bleeding Although it usually works, it can be painful.

The Reasons You Should Never Ignore Blood in Your Stool

What Is the Cause of Bleeding While Passing Stools?

 

The cause of bleeding while passing stool is blood flowing through the anus. Both bright crimson blood in the stool and brownish, dark, or black feces are symptoms of bleeding. Potentially, the bleeding might be covered up. Rectal bleeding may also be evident in cases of gastrointestinal bleeding from the stomach, duodenum, small intestine, or Meckel’s diverticulum. Although rectal bleeding may not cause pain, it can nevertheless cause additional symptoms including diarrhea and abdominal cramps due to irritation from blood in the stool.

However, you can’t be certain of the reason for your rectal bleeding without a professional checkup, like one conducted by Blood In Stool Treatment in Ludhiana. The best chance of recovery from a more serious medical condition, such as colon cancer, is early detection. Therefore, if you discover blood in your stools, visit a gastro doctor nearby as soon as possible.

Five Different causes of stool in blood

Hemorrhoids can cause discomfort, pain, and swelling as well as swelling that might bleed. These swollen blood vessels are what cause the bright crimson blood that covers the feces or that is visible when wiping.

Anal fissures, which are tears in the anus’s lining, might give the impression that your anus is ripping while you  pass stools. Another sign of an anal fissure is burning per rectally.

Blood in the stool can also be an indication of colon issues. Possible reasons include colitis, diverticulitis, colon cancer, colon polyps, and colon polyps. Your digestive system might become so irritated by Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis that it bleeds.

It can also be a sign of bleeding if your feces is black. This coloring normally occurs when there is bleeding high up in the digestive tract, like in the stomach or small intestine. It’s not always concerning, though, because you can have a black hue to your stool if you take iron supplements or a prescription for diarrhea.

Tests to identify the Reasons of bleeding through anus

Dr. Kartik Goyal conducts a physical examination to look for fissures or hemorrhoids. For these painful but mostly benign illnesses, he can provide pain relief. He can also discuss with you how to avoid them in the future.

You might need extra comprehensive tests if a physical examination or rectal examination is unable to promptly pinpoint the cause of your rectal bleeding. During an anoscopy in Ludhiana or sigmoidoscopy in Ludhiana, Dr. Kartik Goyal can examine your lower rectum and anus. This test is done in-office without sedation. 

Depending on the type of bleeding you are experiencing, your family history, and your current symptoms, Dr. Kartik Goyal could recommend getting a colonoscopy. This test, which is performed while you’re sedated, looks at your entire colon.

Why having blood in your stool is a Problem

Rectal bleeding can be an indication of cancer or a precancerous condition, while there are other more compelling causes as well. If you have polyps (precancerous growths) close to the bottom of your colon, your bleeding may look like hemorrhoids. It is critical to have polyps removed as soon as they are discovered to prevent the development of cancer, which can take years before they are removed.

As you approach 40 or 50 years old, your chance of getting polyps and colon cancer rises. As a result, it is even more important to perform a comprehensive physical and to be particularly cautious about any indications of blood in your stool.

If you see even the slightest hint of rectal bleeding, get in touch with Treatment for Rectal bleeding in Punjab or make an appointment online. Rectal bleeding should never be disregarded because it could produce complications that could be fatal. Being careful is preferable to being regretful.

Know the difference between piles and fissures

Piles and Fissures Treatment in Ludhiana, Punjab

Piles and Fissures Treatment in Ludhiana, Punjab: An itchy and irritable anal cavity, discomfort when sitting for a long time, and bloody or difficult-to-pass stools? You have likely come across similar circumstances at some point in your life. It’s not just you! In India, hemorrhoids affect 50% of the population. According to reports, 20% of cases had both piles and fissures. However, since both piles and fissures have comparable symptoms, many of us frequently fail to recognize the essential distinction between the two.

A famous Gastro Doctors for fissure treatment in Punjab describes the difference between piles and fissures in this article.

What Distinguishes a Fissure from a Pile?

Inflamed veins in the rectal or anal region may extend outside, resulting in piles or hemorrhoids, which are uncomfortable.

On the lining of the anal cavity, a small cut is called an anal fissure.

Piles vs Fissures

Here are some factors that will explain the differences between piles and fissures.

PilesFissure
Swollen veins in the rectum, anus or anal canalAnal skin cut or torn
Initial pain is minimal, but it soon becomes more intense as the swelling increases.Extremely uncomfortable and painful with mild to moderate bleeding
Long-term constipation, pregnancy, a chronic cough, and physical strain can cause piles.

 

This happens during pregnancy, as a result of obesity or an injury to the anal cavity, in people with Crohn’s disease, who pass hard stools and have persistent diarrhoea, and in people with other conditions.

 

Piles and Fissure Overview

Piles and fissures usually remain misdiagnosed because of overlapping signs and symptoms. Here is a full overview of pile fissures to further your understanding.

Piles Overview

The symptoms and potential treatments are based on the type of hemorrhoid you have and how severe it is. When detected early enough, you can even treat it at home with simple lifestyle changes and natural remedies. There are usually three types of piles:

  1. Internal Hemorrhoids

Internal Hemorrhoids occur as solid lumps in the rectal cavity’s back tube. Since there are not many pain-sensing nerves in that area, you might not initially feel them. However, if your bowel movements are difficult or prolongedly constipated, this may occasionally result in blood and pain.

  1. External Hemorrhoids

External hemorrhoids are more apparent and painful because they form on the outside of your anal canal. Usually, they are covered in regular skin and have pain nerves all around them. This type of pile is not only more painful, but it also carries a high risk of blood clots, skin tags, and other skin infections.

  1. Thrombosed Hemorrhoids

Having thrombosed hemorrhoids is characterized by a blood clot that prevents blood flow. The additional blood might cause temporary hemorrhoids to rupture and start bleeding. If you are confused as to whether these bleeding hemorrhoids are dangerous, do not be alarmed. The majority of thrombosed hemorrhoids are benign, even though they can be highly painful and uncomfortable.

Fissures Overview

Anal fissures, in contrast to piles, can be extremely painful immediately away. Anal sphincter spasms and intense itching might result from a small tear in the moist tissue of the anal region.

Fissures come in different levels of severity and can be classified as

  1. Acute Fissures

Acute fissures are easy to treat because they have only recently formed. One can help these fissures to heal on their own with simple home remedies.

But if left untreated, they might later turn into chronic fissures.

  1. Chronic Fissures

These are fissures that require medical attention to heal and last longer than 8 to 12 weeks.

Chronic fissures include an anal rip, a skin tag-like enlargement, and an additional tissue growth known as a hypertrophied papilla.

  1. Fissure Symptoms

Anal fissures usually involve a searing ache at the bottom. However, there are other fissure signs and symptoms you could encounter:

  • Periodic bleeding, especially after urinating
  • A sharp spasm, and tightness of the anus were both present.
  • Painful boils that may be pus-filled
  • Smell of mucus-like discharge

A common fissure or hemorrhoid is simple to treat and will heal entirely in at least 6 to 8 weeks.

The best treatments for treating piles and fissures to promote quicker healing include the ones listed below:

  • The stools may become more bulky and soft by increasing your intake of fiber and liquids. This would alleviate any discomfort and make it simpler to pass through.
  • The best way to treat piles and fissures is with ice packs and a cold compress that can help with pain relief.
  • A frequently recommended and effective at-home treatment for piles and fissures is a sitz bath, which is a warm bath with salts.
  • The discomfort can be reduced by using loose cotton garments that won’t further rip the injured area.
  • On an empty stomach, consume 500–600 ml of water to assist trigger the gastrocolic reflex (a contraction of your colon to release stools).
  • It is best to seek medical advice if the symptoms last longer than a week.

What Should you avoid in Fissures and Piles?

You would certainly understand the distinction between fissures and piles treatment in Ludhiana. However, you can manage their symptoms by making a small change to your way of life.

Here are some recommendations you need to follow to if you have piles and fissures:

  • Avoid spicy food
  • Avoid fried food
  • Restrict the consumption of caffeinated beverages

Fatty Liver Kartik Goyal liver disease

Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Obesity

Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Obesity

It is commonly known that drinking alcohol excessively harms the liver. There is a widespread perception that this is the primary cause of cirrhosis and other serious, usually fatal liver diseases. Obesity is an important contributing factor as well. Fatty deposits develop in the liver as a result of both excessive drinking and obesity. NAFLD, standing for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, is the diagnosis.

How does NAFLD impact the body?

The liver is one of the body’s most important organs. It helps improve digestion, produces proteins that rebuild and repair damaged cells, stores the iron the body needs, turns food into energy, and aids in the body’s capacity to fight off diseases. A small amount of fat is present in the liver’s normal composition. NAFLD is present when obesity causes the quantity of fat in the liver to rise to 5% to 10% of the total weight of the liver.

In many cases, NAFLD may not show any symptoms, making it difficult for people to identify their condition. In other cases, the liver swells, damaging the surrounding tissue. It’s also referred to as Non-Alcoholic SteatoHepatitis ( NASH). Cells are damaged as a result of this harm, and scar tissue develops as a result, reducing the liver’s ability to function. Cirrhosis is a disorder that develops when the level of scar tissue is excessive and can result in liver cancer and liver failure.

How does obesity cause fatty liver disease?

NAFLD may occasionally appear out of nowhere. Stated that the following are some frequent reasons for the condition:

  • Obesity is one of the most common causes. Modern eating habits, lifestyles, inactivity, and genetic predispositions are the main causes of obesity.
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Diabetes syndrome
  • Taking some prescription medication

What symptoms are present in fatty liver disease?

NAFLD patients usually don’t exhibit any symptoms until the disease has progressed to the cirrhosis stage. In other circumstances, the symptoms could be:

  • Abdominal pain or a feeling of fullness
  • Nausea
  • Appetite loss
  • Weight loss
  • Eyes and skin with yellow undertones (jaundice)
  • Extreme fatigue
  • Mental confusion
  • Swollen legs and abdomen

Which treatment is most effective for NAFLD?

The first step in treating NAFLD brought on by obesity is weight loss. Under medical supervision, a controlled, progressive weight loss that doesn’t fluctuate could halt the disease’s course. This requires maintaining a tight diet and doing lots of exercises. A Gastro Doctor may also prescribe medication to treat NAFLD. If all other treatment options fail and the condition gets bad enough to risk one’s life, the only option left is a liver transplant.

ERCP Kartik Goyal

What Are ERCP, And What Are The Common Reason For Doctors To Use It?

What Is ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography)?

ERCP or Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography is a method that mixes the X-rays and upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy in order to treat the issue of pancreatic ducts and bile.

 What Are Bile And Pancreatic Ducts?

Bile ducts are basically a tube that carries bile from your liver to your duodenum and gallbladder. The primary function is that the small pancreatic ducts empty into the main pancreatic duct. Also, the common bile duct and the duct of the main pancreatic join together before they empty into the duodenum. 

Reasons Why Doctors Use ERCP?

The main reason why the best gastro doctor in Ludhiana uses ERCP is to treat the issue related to pancreatic ducts and bile. Apart from that, the professional also uses ERCP to diagnose the concerns of bile and pancreatic ducts if they expect to cure the issue at the time of the procedure.

In the case of only diagnosing the issue, the doctor generally uses non-invasive tests instead of ERCP. They are those examinations that do not physically enter the body.

Some of the non-invasive tests that are safe and can also diagnose the problem of pancreatic ducts and bile without any complication are magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). It is basically a type of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Doctors perform ERCPs because of the blocking and narrowing of the bile and pancreatic ducts. 

Common Reason For The Blocking And Narrowing Of Pancreatic And Bile Duct

  1. The formation of gallstones in your gallbladder becomes stuck in the common bile duct.
  2. Chronic pancreatitis.
  3. Acute pancreatitis.
  4. Having surgical or trauma complications in the pancreatic and bile ducts.
  5. Pancreatic pseudocysts.
  6. Tumors or cancer of the pancreas.
  7. Tumor and cancer of bile ducts.

Talking To Your Doctor Is The Key

It is necessary for you to discuss your allergies and medical conditions beforehand. You should also show all the prescribed over-the-counter medicines that you are taking, including vitamins, and other supplements such as:

  1. Arthritis medicines
  2. Blood pressure medicines
  3. Blood thinners medications
  4. Diabetes medicines
  5. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as Ibuprofen and naproxen.

Apart from that, your doctor might also ask you to stop taking certain medicines, such as those that affect the interaction with sedatives and blood clotting temporarily. Additionally, the doctor will also prescribe you some sedatives at the time of ERCP treatment to help you relax a little and stay comfortable throughout the procedure.

You must also tell your doctor if you are pregnant or not. If you are pregnant and have to undergo ERCP treatment to treat the condition, the doctor might conduct the whole procedure with some minor or major changes best suited for the patient’s comfort. They would also protect the fetus from the X-rays.

According to much research, we have established that ERCP is generally safer during pregnancy.

Dr. Kartik Goyal talks about Hemorrhoids and their management options

Hemorrhoids treatment (Piles Treatment)

Dr. Kartik Goyal, a known gastro doctor in Punjab, recently discussed piles or hemorrhoids conditions. He shared his views, saying, “Hemorrhoids is one of the common conditions that usually occur in patients with an anal fistula or anal fissure problem. With the diagnosis of the condition, most patients are left with the thought of why it happens and whether there’s a need to undergo Hemorrhoids Surgery in Ludhiana or not?

Breaking down the types of Hemorrhoids

Hemorrhoids have two main categories that include:

Type 1: Internal Hemorrhoids

Internal hemorrhoids lead to rectal bleeding, and there’s a possibility of protruding. Moreover, the patient notices the hemorrhoids go back inside on their own. On the other hand, it might stay outside all the time.

When you visit the best gastro doctor in Ludhiana with his expertise, you can get the treatment performed as an in-office method. The procedure works best as rubber band ligation.

During the procedure, the rubber is placed on the hemorrhoid base. Later, hemorrhoids fall with the band that’s attached to them. The procedure is not that painful; you can expect some normal discomfort.

Type 2: External Hemorrhoids

An external hemorrhoid problem occurs if there’s a blood clot and is medically termed a thrombosed external hemorrhoid. Some of the most common symptoms are:

  • Acute onset of anal or butt pain, which has a link to a lump

The procedure works best as an in-office procedure to ensure the hemorrhoids get excised correctly the way it’s needed.

Analyze the causes of haemorrhoids

A basic understanding of hemorrhoids helps the individual to know what’s the problem and what to do next for its management. Some of the possible causes are:

  • Strain during bowel movement
  • Being obese
  • Being pregnant
  • Doing anal intercourse
  • Heavy lifting continuously
  • Have faced constipation or chronic diarrhea
  • Intake of a low-fiber diet

 

Please be mindful!

One of the common symptoms of hemorrhoids is itching, although it’s not known why it happens and what should be done next for its management. Additionally, the patients have bleeding problems, so the doctor can ask you to get a colonoscopy for its management.

Prevention tips for hemorrhoids

For hemorrhoids, it’s essential to understand preventive tips to make it much better for making everything balanced. And that’s why to manage the symptoms; there are a few tips that I often suggest my patients follow like:

  • Make sure to increase your intake of high-fiber food options like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. The high-fiber food helps to soften the stool and won’t let you put strain. Moreover, it even works against gas problems.
  • Increasing water intake as a liquid diet helps the stool to get soft.
  • You need to have fiber supplements in your diet. Make sure you have at least 20 to 30 grams daily to make the situation much more manageable.
  • You should never strain or try to hold your breath while passing the stool. Always go right away when you feel the urge.

Gastro doctor views on Hemorrhoids and available treatment options

Hemorrhoids (Piles) Treatment Punjab

Hemorrhoids mean swelling and inflammation of the vein in the rectum that leads to bleeding and discomfort. In medical terms, it’s also called vascular cushions that surround the anus.

Types of Hemorrhoids

  • Internal hemorrhoids: Covered by mucosa, present inside the anus
  • External hemorrhoids: Covered by skin, present outside the anus

The type of treatment given by your Gastrologist in Punjab will depend upon the type of hemorrhoids you have. So that is why a proper understanding of your condition is essential to determine the most reliable solution.

Different grades of Hemorrhoids

The hemorrhoids are divided into five grades, and these are mentioned below:

  • Grade 1

The hemorrhoids happen due to cushion problems like bleeding or protruding. The bowel movement causes excess pressure and inflammation. There’s a problem of swelling and bleeding in the stool.

  • Grade 2

The cushions can expand quickly when you push the stool. Sometimes, it might pop inside the anus. However, when you don’t push, it can get sucked back in, and medically it’s called spontaneously reducing.

  • Grade 3

With time, the cushions can stay outside the body once you stop. In such a case, you should wear gloved fingers and push back the anus. Medically, it’s called manually reducing, and your healthcare provider does it.

  • Grade 4

In case of an advanced problem, pushing won’t help, and it keeps coming back outside. Internal hemorrhoids that protrude or bleed won’t cause burning or sharp pain. Such pain occurs due to anal fissures.

External hemorrhoids have problems due to a small blood clot leading to a knot or little ball outside the anus. Sometimes, these dissolve within 3 to 4 days, and the pain disappears.

How to prevent and treat hemorrhoids?

The medical expert suggested Hemorrhoids Surgery in Ludhiana when the condition worsens, and the grade is higher. Surgery is the only way to address the concern and improve your overall well-being.

  • Increase fiber intake
  • Drink enough water
  • Don’t have food that causes constipation like white bread, processed grains, red meat, white rice, bananas, and alcoholic beverages.
  • Do not strain or push too much during bowel movements.
  • If bowel movement does not happen even after sitting for a long time, then better try again later.

The improved and technologically updated medical system is nothing less than a blessing in disguise for everyone around us. The approach to health care keeps on getting better, and the individual struggling with a specific health issue gets the perfect treatment plan. The medical system is exceptionally vast as there are:

  • Modern medicine
  • Ayurvedic medicine

The availability of the latest treatment plan does create confusion in the person’s mind. Whether to choose the Gastrologist in Punjab or any other medical expert.

Please Note!

The blog is not intended to take down any system of medicines and has no intention to force somebody to choose a particular option. The only motive is to highlight the difference between the two.

Difference: Modern and Ayurvedic Medicine

Difference 1: Approach for health care

Physically if you have any health issues, modern medicine provides the utmost relief. The reason to seek assistance at one of the Gastroenterology Hospital in Ludhiana is how the doctor handles the problem. Suppose if you have severe heartburn, then you need gastrologist help.

With Ayurveda, the approach is different as treatment includes a holistic approach. The Ayurvedic doctor emphasizes the treatment plan by including all three other aspects.

Difference 2: Evidence-based treatment

When you visit the Gastro doctor in Ludhiana, only after performing a detailed diagnosis and knowing the reason behind the digestive problem; will you get the treatment. No matter which treatment you get, it’s an evidence-based approach. So, modern medicine gets an approval after trials and errors.

With Ayurveda, the approach is scientific, and they have its principles for treating a health issue.

Difference 3: Giving importance to diet and lifestyle

Undoubtedly, modern medicine has transformed a lot compared to the past. Modern medicine emphasizes changing diet and lifestyle as your treatment plan continues.

On the other hand, an Ayurvedic practitioner tells you to focus on balancing diet and lifestyle.

One thing that no one can deny is the limelight that the SUPPLEMENTS get for the health benefits to improve/reduce the chances of health concerns. These are all-natural approaches that eliminate the worry of being toxic or unsafe. But, still, you have to take the supplements under medical assistance every time.

Difference 4: Treatment for chronic and acute disease

If you look deep into both the systems, Ayurvedic and modern medicine give treatment for both situations. But sometimes, if the problem is worse or extremely severe, a surgical approach is required. And that is why the modern medicine path gets attention.

What to choose?

Both of the options follow a different approach. It’s all about getting assistance from medical experts to take the best care of your well-being. All in all, it’s like choosing the healthcare system that has the necessary answer for your condition. The ultimate goal is to feel good about yourself and address the issue.
