Understanding Digestive Issues – Causes, Symptoms & Treatment in Siliguri

Digestive health is essential for overall well-being, yet it’s often ignored until discomfort becomes chronic. Whether it’s heartburn after meals or unexplained abdominal pain, digestive problems can affect your appetite, mood, and energy levels. At Mahabir Doctor’s Hub in Siliguri, our experienced gastroenterologists diagnose and treat a wide range of digestive disorders.

Common Digestive Issues We Treat:

• Gastritis and acid reflux (GERD)
• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
• Constipation and diarrhea
• Gallstones and liver disorders
• Food intolerance and indigestion
• Ulcers and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)

Symptoms to look out for:

• Frequent heartburn or acidity
• Persistent bloating or gas
• Changes in bowel habits
• Blood in stool
• Sudden or unexplained weight loss
• Pain after eating or at night

How We Diagnose and Treat Digestive Problems

A detailed history and clinical exam come first. We may recommend:

• Blood and stool tests
• Abdominal ultrasound or CT scan
• Endoscopy or colonoscopy (if needed)
• Liver function tests

Based on the diagnosis, treatment may include:

• Dietary adjustments and lifestyle changes
• Antacids or acid blockers
• Probiotics and digestive enzymes
• Antibiotics (if infection is suspected)
• Surgery referral in severe or chronic conditions

We emphasize patient education — explaining what triggers symptoms and how to manage diet effectively.

Untreated digestive problems can lead to nutrient deficiencies, chronic pain, or more serious complications like ulcers or bowel diseases. Even mild symptoms, if persistent, deserve attention.
