Diverticulitis refers to the inflammation or infection of diverticuliโ€”small, sac-like pouches that form along the inner wall of the colon.

Asymptomatic cases typically require no treatment while mild cases can often be managed with antibiotics and bowel rest.

However, if symptoms persist or complications occur, surgical removal of the affected bowel segment may be necessary to prevent further damage.

Liver cancer often progresses silently in its early stages. That is why regular screening every six months is strongly advised for individuals at high risk, which include those with hepatitis B infection, liver cirrhosis or a family history of liver cancer.

When detected early, liver cancer is far more amenable to curative treatments, including surgical resection of malignant liver tumours before they progress or spread to other tissues and organs.

A common condition experienced by many of us, haemorrhoids (piles) are abnormally enlarged blood vessels in and around the a**s, which can cause pain, itching, bleeding, or a feeling of a lump in the a**l region.

Depending on the grade of the piles, treatment may involve dietary changes to reduce bowel straining, rubber band ligation to restrict blood flow and cause the piles to shrivel and fall off, or surgery to remove the piles or pull up the pr*****ed piles to their usual position.

A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue pushes through a weakened area in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue.

Once formed, a hernia will not resolve on its own. Timely treatment is important to prevent complications such as obstruction or strangulation.

Hernia repair may be performed using:
โ€ข Minimally invasive (laparoscopic/robotic) surgery, or
โ€ข Traditional (open) surgery

The most appropriate surgical approach depends on factors such as the herniaโ€™s size, type, and location.

If you suspect a hernia, consult a hernia surgeon early to discuss your treatment options.๐Ÿ“ž๐—–๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น ๐Ÿฒ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฐ ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฐ or ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜๐˜€๐—”๐—ฝ๐—ฝ ๐Ÿต๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฎ ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฐ to schedule an appointment.

Worried about getting ๐—ด๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐˜€๐˜๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐˜€? While there is no proven way to prevent gallstones, research has shown some possibilities with lifestyle modifications in potentially lowering your risk of developing gallstones.

Nonetheless, some individuals are more likely to develop gallstones due to factors like diabetes, family history and genetics. It is treatable via a small minimally-invasive procedure and can prevent serious consequences if left alone.

If you are over 40-50 years of age and wish to undergo a risk assessment and/or suspect you have gallstones due to symptoms such as abdominal discomfort, pain or bloatedness, secure an appointment at our gallbladder clinic within one working day โ€“ ๐Ÿ“ž๐Ÿฒ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฐ ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฐ or ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜๐˜€๐—”๐—ฝ๐—ฝ ๐Ÿต๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฎ ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฐ.

In the long run, with recurring episodes, chronic pancreatitis can develop, and in turn, increases the risk of pancreatic cancer. It is often caused by treatable common conditions such as gallstones.
