What are digestive system diseases?

Answer 1

Well, there are hundreds, too many to list even. However, some include:

• Crohn's Disease
• Gastroenteritis
• Cancers of the digestive tract (Stomach cancer, intestinal, esophageal, etc.
• Ulcers
• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) (Commonly known as Acid Reflux and Heartburn)
• Appendicitis
• Celiac Disease
• Cirrhosis
• Kidney stones/Gall stones
• Hemorrhoids
• Pancreatitis
• Ulcerative Colitis

Honestly, I was going to list off the common ones, but there are so many as the digestive system is rather vast. If you really want to know about the digestive system and the diseases it can contract, you're best bet would be picking a particular organ and researching it. Or you can research specific diseases, like the ones I've listed above. I wouldn't START with Hemorrhoids, it might make you hate anatomy.

The digestive system is an intricate system that can be disrupted by disease, diet, and emotional stress. Common digestive problems such as heartburn/GERD, IBD, and IBS cause millions of Americans to suffer daily and limit quality of life. Digestive problems often result in symptoms such as bloating, diarrhea, gas, stomach pain, and stomach cramps. Learning more about the digestive system may help with managing these problems.About 90 million people in the United States are affected by all digestive problems. Digestive disorders account for more than 104 million physician office visits per year.

Most digestive diseases are very complex, with subtle symptoms, and the causes of many remain unknown. They may be inherited, or develop from multiple factors such as stress, fatigue, diet, or smoking. Abusing alcohol imposes the greatest risk for digestive diseases.

Reaching a diagnosis requires a thorough and accurate medical history and physical examination. Some patients may need to undergo more extensive diagnostic evaluations, including lab tests, endoscopic procedures, and imaging techniques. Physicians who specialize in the treatment of digestive problems are called gastroenterologists.
