Dr. Krishna Tripuraneni, is the most successful and renowned gastroenterologist. He has studied medicine from the Osmania University in Hyderabad. He has a certification of the American Board of Internal Medicine and America Board of Gastroenterology and Liver Diseases.
Dr. Tripuraneni states that most of the people do not discuss their digestive problems openly and keep suffering from the discomfort in the body. Digestive disorders are a real burden on many of us. He states that the common digestive problems found in the human body are Reflux, Peptic Ulcers, Gallstones and Lactose Intolerance.
According to KRISHNA TRIPURANENI, M.D., MBA, heartburn, which is the common symptom of Reflux, is one of the common problems of the digestive system. It involves a burning feeling in the abdomen area and into the chest area. The problem can be treated using drugs that reduce the acid levels.
Peptic Ulcers is another common problem of the digestive system, as pointed by Dr. Tripuraneni. It includes unexplained stomach pain. Taking aspirin in stomach pain can worsen the problem, and the patient should always avoid this medicine. Ulcers can cause internal bleeding and may create a hole in the small intestine. An antibiotic treatment with an acid reduction therapy can help the patient with ulcers in the stomach.
Another common digestive problem is gallstones. According to Dr. Tripuraneni, only a quarter of people require treatment in this problem. If the stones create inflammation, then it is required to remove the gallbladder. Obesity is one of the risk factors for this problem.
Lactose Intolerance or the lack of an enzyme that is required to digest the sugar in milk is one of the most common digestive problems seen in African-Americans and Asians. A breath test can be done to test the Lactose Intolerance. Avoiding all the dairy products is not necessary in this disease.
Digestive problems can make the person week and sick. Digestive system is the most important part of the human body and any intolerance or problem in this can make the person ill. So it is very important to take healthy diet in order to stay active and healthy.
