The health of the intestines plays a vital role in human health, and the energy needed for the functioning of the human body is provided by the intestines.
Its main function is to digest and decompose the food consumed by our human body, after the digestion and decomposition of these foods, the intestine will quickly absorb and quickly transport the nutrients produced by the digestion of these foods to all parts of the body, in addition, the intestine also has an excretory function.
After the intestine completely absorbs the nutrients of food, it will remove food impurities and harmful substances that have not been absorbed.
Both of these functions are very important to our human body, and once there is a problem with one function, then a series of frightening diseases will appear.
Although intestinal diseases are rare, once they suffer from intestinal diseases, patients will lose weight at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the patient's immunity will generally decrease.
Therefore, everyone must protect their intestines in daily life, and intestinal diseases will affect the whole body.
Common intestinal diseases are mainly as follows: enteritis, intestinal infections, Crohn's disease and so on.
These diseases will make the human body diarrhea, constipation and other diseases to a certain extent, and in addition to these ordinary diseases, there is intestinal cancer, a terrible cancer disease.
There are no excessive symptoms in the early stage of bowel cancer, but once it develops to an advanced stage, it will make the human body have abdominal pain, blood in the stool and other malignant symptoms, which makes people cold.
Although these diseases are terrifying to onset, if they can be removed early in the onset, then these diseases will not actually cause much harm.
So how can we detect these root causes early? In fact, there is a way, that is, colonoscopy!
The so-called colonoscopy is actually a soft, camera tube inserted into the anus, through which the doctor can directly observe the situation in the intestine of the person being examined.
By examining the intestines, doctors can detect in advance whether the intestines contain abnormalities such as tumors, polyps, and inflammation.
At the same time, hidden polyps in the intestine can be detected in advance, and if these polyps are left unchecked, they will not only cause abdominal pain and blood in the stool, but also risk developing into tumors.
Therefore, colonoscopy is very necessary, let's take a look at what are the benefits of colonoscopy!
First of all, the first benefit of colonoscopy is the early detection of bowel cancer mentioned above.
When doctors use colonoscopy to examine our intestines, they pay extra attention to whether there are early colon polyps in the intestines.
When these polyps are detected, doctors immediately perform surgery to remove the polyps from the intestine so that they do not develop into tumors.
What's more, it takes about five to ten years for colon polyps to develop into malignant tumors, which also means that if we do a colonoscopy, we can spend five to ten years safely.
This is obviously very cost-effective, but I hope that everyone still try to do an intestinal examination once a year, after all, doctors are not immortals, and some polyps hidden in the dark are likely not to be found, so everyone try to do regular intestinal examinations.
Secondly, colonoscopy can help us know the health of the intestines.
After all, in addition to bowel cancer, diseases such as enteritis are also difficult diseases that plague people.
When we find ourselves suffering from a disease such as enteritis, doctors can check the degree of disease through colonoscopy, and then prescribe medicine according to the examination to better treat our intestinal disease.
Finally, colonoscopy can also promote the digestion of our intestines to a certain extent, because we need to specially empty the impurities in the intestines before colonoscopy.
For this we need to drink no small dose of laxatives, and only by emptying the impurities in the intestines can doctors better examine our intestines.
This also brings unexpected benefits, emptying the impurities in the intestine is actually removing the burden on the intestine, so that the intestine can better play the function of absorbing nutrients.
In general, if we want to ensure our physical and mental health, we must protect our own intestines.
Although intestinal diseases are uncommon, once they occur, they will greatly affect our bodies and even bring irreversible damage.
Therefore, we should always pay attention to our gut health and take appropriate measures to protect it.
Colonoscopy is a very effective method, which can detect intestinal diseases in time at an early stage, and then we can prescribe the right medicine and solve intestinal problems in a targeted manner.
In addition, colonoscopy can also help us understand our physical condition and better prevent other diseases.
Most importantly, through colonoscopy, we can better understand our intestinal health and take timely measures to protect our physical health, so I recommend that everyone go to the hospital regularly for colonoscopy to protect our intestinal health.
