While occasional can happen due to or dehydration, chronic constipation may point toward an underlying digestive issue, especially if it’s accompanied by:
• Abdominal pain or bloating
• Blood in stool
• Unintended weight loss
• A sudden change in bowel habits

At Islamabad Gastroenterology Associates (IGA), we help patients get to the root cause of their symptoms, not just temporary relief.

Sometimes the issue lies in dietary habits, but other times it may signal a deeper condition that requires medical evaluation.

Don’t wait for discomfort to become distress. Seek help early.

Did you know fiber is like fuel for your gut?

It keeps digestion smooth, helps regulate cholesterol, and even supports a stronger immune system. Yet, most of us don’t get enough of it in our daily diet.

Simple swaps like whole grains instead of refined flour, or an extra serving of fruits and veggies, can go a long way in preventing constipation and lowering long-term digestive risks.

✅ A healthy gut starts with mindful choices.

If you’re struggling with persistent bloating, constipation, or irregular bowel habits, it may be time to get checked.

If you find yourself reaching for antacids every day, it may be more than simple acidity. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) happens when acid frequently flows back into the food pipe, and if left untreated, it can lead to complications like ulcers, narrowing of the esophagus, and even precancerous changes.

Early diagnosis means you can protect your health before it worsens. Don’t ignore persistent symptoms, your body is telling you something important.

IBS doesn’t cause permanent damage, but it can significantly affect your quality of life. The good news? With the right guidance, symptoms can be managed and controlled.

At IGA, we help patients identify triggers, adjust diet and lifestyle, and follow evidence-based treatment tailored to each individual.

This World Hepatitis Day, we stand with the global message “Let’s Break It Up” -breaking the silence, stigma, and access barriers that keep people from getting screened and treated for Hepatitis B and C.

In this message, Prof. Muzaffar Latif Gill shares why screening matters, how World Health Organization- Pakistan (WHO) is leading the global effort, and what we can do right here in Pakistan to change the future.

We urge you to get screened. Early diagnosis saves lives, and together, we can move closer to a Hepatitis-Free Pakistan.
