A chronic condition where stomach acid flows back into the oesophagus, causing heartburn, irritation, and discomfort.
Refers to chronic inflammation of the digestive tract, primarily Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, which may cause severe digestive symptoms.
A common disorder affecting bowel function, leading to abdominal cramps, bloating, diarrhoea or constipation, without visible inflammation.
Abnormal growths in the colon or rectum that may be benign or precancerous; early removal is key to preventing colorectal cancer.
Swollen or inflamed veins in the rectum or anus that can cause bleeding, itching, pain, or discomfort, especially during bowel movements.
Liver infections caused by hepatitis viruses B or C that may lead to chronic liver inflammation, scarring, and increased cancer risk.
A build-up of excess fat in the liver unrelated to alcohol intake; may progress to liver inflammation, fibrosis, or cirrhosis over time.
Advanced liver scarring caused by chronic liver damage; it affects liver function and may lead to serious complications like portal hypertension.
Includes gallstones, cholecystitis (inflammation), and bile duct obstruction which can cause pain, jaundice, and digestive issues.
Includes acute or chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic cysts, or tumours, which may impact digestion, blood sugar control, and overall health.
When Should You See a Digestive Specialist?
Ongoing discomfort or fullness in the abdomen could indicate a gastrointestinal issue requiring further evaluation.
If you experience burning in the chest or regurgitation more than twice a week, it may be GERD and should be addressed early.
Sudden or long-term diarrhoea, constipation, or changes in stool colour or consistency may signal digestive tract concerns.
A yellow tint in the skin or eyes may be a sign of liver, gallbladder, or bile duct issues that require prompt attention.
Unusual tiredness, poor appetite, or swelling may be linked to liver problems such as hepatitis or cirrhosis.
