Symptoms
Gastroenterology is a medical specialty that seeks to prevent, diagnose, and treat conditions relating to the digestive tract involving organs such as the gallbladder, pancreas, liver, oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, and the liver. Some common symptoms that may indicate the need for a physical examination include:
Abdominal pains or cramping
Bloating
Changes in bowel habits (diarrhoea, constipation)
Rectal bleeding or bloody stools
Itching, pain, or discomfort around the anal region
Unexplained weight loss
Nausea and vomiting
Heartburn
Fatigue
Bleeding or bruising easily
Fever or night sweats
It's important to note that these symptoms can also be caused by other conditions, and not all patients with cancer will experience all of these symptoms.
However, if you experience any of these symptoms or have concerns about your health, it's important to speak with a healthcare provider as soon as possible.
