Can a tortuous colon be reversed?

By colonoscopy is the best procedure to remove the polyps. The colonoscopy procedure is carried out when canal needs to be examined for signs of cancers, ulcers, fistulas or any other such anomalies. A colonoscopy screens for possible colon cancer and other diseases of the bowel or colon. In colonoscopy procedure a thinner tube penetrates patient's colon through anus. Sometimes, when the colon is not well prepared for the colonoscopy, the doctor can pump some air in the colon. This can help the opening of the colon. The whole intestine is easily examined through the colonoscopy. If there are any obstacles, such as polyps are found, a small biopsy instrument reaches the suspect area, and "bites" a piece. In this manner polyps can be removed from the colon.
