Digestive Disorders
Each year, digestive disorders affect the lives of millions of people in the United States. These diseases affect the digestive system, which is also referred to as the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The esophagus, liver, stomach, small and large intestines, gallbladder, and pancreas are all components of the gastrointestinal tract.
Digestive disorders encompass a wide range of diseases, from those that are relatively mild to those that are quite severe. Irritable bowel syndrome, lactose intolerance, hiatal hernia, and gastroesophageal reflux disease are some of the most common digestive disorders.
Most people who have digestive disorders will experience bleeding, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn, pain, nausea, and vomiting as their primary symptoms. Collecting detailed information about a patient's medical history and performing a comprehensive physical exam are both necessary steps in arriving at an accurate diagnosis of digestive disorders. Diagnostic workups may be necessary for certain patients suffering from digestive disorders.
