What Is Abdominal Pain?

If you’re suffering from abdominal pain in Manhattan or one of the other boroughs, it can be a mild inconvenience treatable with over-the-counter remedies or a sign of a severe illness that requires immediate attention from a gastroenterologist.
Abdominal pain should always be evaluated with a thorough consultation and examination by a gastroenterologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan, as it may be a symptom of a severe illness or condition. There are multiple causes of stomach pain that should be investigated by a top GI specialist. Abdominal pain can be acute or chronic, and it can result from problems with the stomach, appendix, gallbladder, spleen, bowel, liver, or gynecological issues.

Therefore, it is critical that you see our practice’s doctor for an examination and further investigation to determine the source of your pain. If you’re experiencing abdominal pain in the Upper East Side, your problem deserves to be addressed by a best-in-class gastroenterologist.

A colonoscopy is an endoscopic examination of the large bowel performed by our colonoscopy screening doctors at Manhattan Gastroenterology. Our gastroenterologists guide a colonoscope (a long, thin, flexible tube containing a tiny video camera) from the anus to the end of the colon (cecum) and into the distal part of the small bowel (the terminal ileum). During your coloscopy, images from the camera are shown in real-time on a monitor, allowing the doctor to carefully examine the bowel. Biopsies and treatment can be given during this procedure, which usually takes about 30 minutes. We offer colonoscopy screening in multiple locations in New York City, including Midtown Manhattan and Upper East Side (UES).

What Is a Colonoscopy and Why Is It Performed?

Colonoscopy is the gold standard screening exam used to look for colorectal cancer (commonly referred to as colon cancer) that is recommended in patients without symptoms aged 45 or over (or earlier depending on risk factors such as family history, polyps, and other factors) that should be discussed with your local gastroenterologist. Coloscopy is used to look for polyps or other growths in the colon with the goal of prevention and early diagnosis of colon cancer.

Our physicians use a long, flexible tube called a colonoscope. This device, about as thick around as a finger, has a video camera on its tip and sends images to a video monitor, where the doctor can observe its trip from your rectum to the deepest part of your colon. Colonoscopy is also used to evaluate patients with a wide array of digestive symptoms, including rectal bleeding, chronic diarrhea, chronic constipation as well as many other symptoms as part of a complete evaluation for a proper diagnosis.

At colonoscopy clinic, Manhattan Gastroenterology, we utilize the latest in medical technology and high definition equipment, and imaging modalities in order to optimally visualize your bowel during coloscopy to make a diagnosis and establish an effective treatment plan. Our gold star-rated JCAHO colonoscopy center is equipped to make sure your procedure is comfortable and safe while you are having your colonoscopy performed.

Hemorrhoids are swollen and inflamed veins in the rectum and anus that can cause discomfort and bleeding. If you suspect hemorrhoidal disease, you should always be evaluated with a thorough consultation and examination by a physician for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan and to exclude a serious illness or condition such as colon or anal cancer. Hemorrhoidal disease is just one of the many causes for rectal bleeding and lesions around the anus that need evaluation. Rectal bleeding can be a symptom of any type of colorectal or anal cancer, a type of cancer that can be cured if detected early.
At Manhattan Gastroenterology, our doctors, top rated NYC gastroenterologists, and hemorrhoids specialists offer varying hemorrhoids treatment according to their severity. In mild cases, topical medications and an improved diet can help to alleviate symptoms. In other cases, IRC (Infrared Coagulation), hemorrhoid banding or rarely, surgery can be performed to physically remove the hemorrhoids.
A complete evaluation and early diagnosis by your doctor is very important. Rectal bleeding can be a symptom of any type of colorectal or anal cancer, a type of cancer that can be cured if detected early.
Piles are extremely common. By age 50, approximately half of the population has experienced signs of this health condition [1]. You can get piles inside your anal canal, where they’re called internal hemorrhoids or under the skin around your anus, where they’re called external hemorrhoids. If blood pools in an external hemorrhoid, it may form a clot, called a thrombus. This condition can result in severe pain and inflammation.

This health condition can be very painful. Visit our NYC hemorrhoids doctors for the best hemorrhoid treatment options including laser treatments. Emergency appointments are available at the NYC doctor’s office.
