Gastrointestinal Tract Diseases

Gastrointestinal tract diseases affect the organs involved in digestion, including the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and pancreas. Common conditions include acid reflux, ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and inflammatory bowel diseases (like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis). Symptoms often include pain, bloating, diarrhea, or constipation. These diseases can result from factors like diet, genetics, infections, or stress. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing symptoms and improving quality of life, often requiring lifestyle changes, medications, or, in some cases, surgery. Maintaining a healthy diet and regular check-ups can help prevent many GI issues.
