Are You Experiencing These Symptoms?

Digestive problems often begin with mild symptoms that gradually become frequent or severe. If you notice any of the following, consulting a gastroenterologist can help identify the cause early.

  • Frequent acidity or heartburn that keeps returning
  • Nausea or repeated vomiting without an obvious reason
  • Feeling full after eating only a small amount
  • Persistent bloating or excessive gas
  • Ongoing stomach pain or abdominal cramps
  • Constipation lasting several days or recurring frequently
  • Loose stools or diarrhoea that does not improve
  • Blood in the stool or black-coloured stools
  • Unexplained weight loss despite normal eating habits
  • Yellowing of the eyes or skin
  • Difficulty swallowing food or liquids
  • Constant tiredness linked to digestive issues

These symptoms do not always indicate a serious condition, but they deserve proper medical evaluation, especially if they persist or recur.

What Gastroenterology Conditions Does Trustwell Hospitals Diagnose and Treat?

Our gastroenterology department evaluates and manages diseases affecting the digestive tract, liver, gallbladder, pancreas and abdominal wall, providing medical and surgical care based on each patient’s diagnosis.

Acid Reflux (GERD)

Acid reflux occurs when stomach acid repeatedly flows back into the food pipe, causing heartburn, sour taste and chest discomfort. Specialist assessment is recommended when symptoms become frequent or medication provides only temporary relief.

Gallbladder Stones

Gallstones are hardened deposits that form inside the gallbladder and may cause severe pain after meals, nausea or infection. Treatment depends on the size of the stones, symptoms and overall gallbladder function.

Hernia

A hernia develops when an internal organ pushes through a weakened area of muscle. It often appears as a visible swelling that becomes more noticeable while coughing, lifting or standing for long periods.

Piles (Haemorrhoids)

Piles are swollen veins around the rectum that can lead to bleeding, itching or pain during bowel movements. Persistent symptoms should be evaluated to determine the most suitable treatment.

Anal Fissure

An anal fissure is a small tear in the lining of the anal canal that commonly causes sharp pain and bleeding during bowel movements. Early treatment may help prevent the condition from becoming chronic.

Anal Fistula

An anal fistula is an abnormal tunnel between the anal canal and the surrounding skin, often developing after an infection. Continuous discharge, swelling or repeated abscesses should be assessed by a specialist.

Appendicitis

Appendicitis is inflammation of the appendix that usually causes pain beginning near the navel before shifting to the lower right abdomen. Prompt medical evaluation is important because untreated inflammation can worsen over time.

Liver Disorders

The liver performs essential functions including digestion, detoxification and metabolism. Conditions such as fatty liver disease, hepatitis and cirrhosis may initially produce few symptoms, making timely evaluation important.

Pancreatic Disorders

Diseases affecting the pancreas can interfere with digestion and blood sugar regulation. Ongoing upper abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss or recurrent pancreatitis should be investigated by a specialist.

Obesity Requiring Bariatric Surgery

For patients with severe obesity and obesity-related health conditions, bariatric surgery may be considered when lifestyle measures alone have not achieved sustained weight loss.

What Advanced Gastroenterology Procedures Are Available at Trustwell Hospitals?

The most appropriate procedure is recommended only after a detailed consultation, clinical examination and relevant diagnostic investigations.
Procedure Commonly Used For
Upper GI Endoscopy Evaluating acidity, ulcers, bleeding and swallowing problems
Colonoscopy Examining the large intestine for bleeding, polyps and bowel disorders
Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery Symptomatic gallstones and gallbladder inflammation
Laparoscopic Hernia Repair Inguinal, umbilical and ventral hernias
Laparoscopic Appendectomy Acute appendicitis
Bariatric Surgery Severe obesity with associated health risks
Piles Surgery Advanced haemorrhoids causing persistent symptoms
Fissure Surgery Chronic anal fissures not responding to medication
Fistula Surgery Complex or recurrent anal fistulas
Liver and Pancreatic Surgery Selected benign and malignant conditions

Upper GI Endoscopy

Upper GI endoscopy uses a flexible camera to examine the oesophagus, stomach and first part of the small intestine. It helps identify ulcers, inflammation, bleeding and other abnormalities while allowing tissue samples to be collected when required.

Colonoscopy

Colonoscopy allows detailed examination of the large intestine to investigate bleeding, chronic diarrhoea, persistent constipation, abdominal pain and suspected bowel diseases. Polyps may also be removed during the procedure when clinically appropriate.

Laparoscopic Gallbladder Surgery

This minimally invasive procedure removes the gallbladder through small incisions when gallstones cause repeated pain or complications. Many patients experience less postoperative discomfort compared with traditional open surgery, although recovery varies.

Laparoscopic Hernia Repair

Using specialised instruments inserted through small incisions, laparoscopic hernia repair strengthens the weakened abdominal wall while reducing tissue disruption. The choice of surgical technique depends on the type and size of the hernia.

Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery supports significant weight reduction in carefully selected patients with obesity. The procedure also aims to improve obesity-related conditions such as diabetes, hypertension and sleep apnoea alongside long-term lifestyle modification.

Advanced Gastrointestinal Surgery

Complex disorders involving the liver, pancreas, intestine and digestive tract may require specialised surgical treatment. Every surgical recommendation is made after careful assessment of the patient’s condition, imaging findings and overall health.

What Happens When Digestive Symptoms Are Left Untreated?

Digestive symptoms that continue for weeks or keep returning should not be ignored. While many gastrointestinal conditions can be managed effectively when diagnosed early, delaying medical evaluation may allow the underlying disease to progress.

Persistent acid reflux can gradually damage the lining of the food pipe, leading to inflammation, ulcers or narrowing that makes swallowing difficult. Repeated abdominal pain caused by gallstones may progress to gallbladder infection or inflammation of the pancreas in some patients.

Untreated liver disorders can continue to damage healthy liver tissue over time, reducing the organ’s ability to perform essential functions. Likewise, ongoing bleeding from piles or intestinal conditions may contribute to anaemia, causing fatigue and reduced daily activity.

Inflammatory bowel conditions and persistent digestive disorders can interfere with nutrient absorption, leading to unintended weight loss, vitamin deficiencies and poor overall health. Hernias generally do not heal on their own and may gradually enlarge, making future treatment more complex.

Consulting a gastroenterologist does not automatically mean surgery is required. It provides a clear diagnosis, explains the available treatment options and helps you make informed decisions based on your condition.
