Intestinal Disease
Intestinal Disease:
Gastrointestinal conditions are disorders of the digestive system, an extensive and complex system that breaks down food to absorb water and extract nutrients, minerals, and vitamins for the body’s use, while then removing unabsorbed waste. The GI tract also includes connected organs – the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. Dr. Vikrant Kale has a special interest in treating gastrointestinal disease, Also he has completed his fellowship in Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) from Oxford University(U.K.)
Type of Intestinal disease we treated:
- Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS): Irritable bowel syndrome (also called spastic colon, irritable colon, IBS, or nervous stomach) is a functional condition where your colon muscle contracts more or less often than “normal.” Certain foods, medicines, and emotional stress are some factors that can trigger IBS.
- Celiac Disease: Celiac disease is a multifactorial gastrointestinal disorder. That’s a fancy way of saying that while it has a genetic basis, it is triggered by factors in the environment. Celiac is caused by an autoimmune reaction to gluten – proteins found in grains such as barley, rye, wheat, and their hybrids.
- Constipation: Constipation is the term used to describe difficulty or infrequency in passing stools (feces). Not everybody has a daily bowel movement, so the passage of time between bowel motions before constipation occurs varies from person to person.
- Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD): Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) represents a group of intestinal disorders that cause prolonged inflammation of the digestive tract. Inflammation anywhere along the digestive tract disrupts this normal process. IBD can be very painful and disruptive, and in some cases, it may even be life-threatening.
Symptoms & Signs of Intestinal disease:
Different types of disease have different symptoms. Some common diseases are
- Abdominal pain and cramps.

- Bloating.

Treatments of Intestinal Disease:
The common treatment of intestinal disease is recommended by the best gastroenterologist in Pune – Dr. Vikrant Kale. Some Common treatment is:
- Medication: You may need to take medications such as antidiarrheal drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs, immunomodulators, antibiotics, and biologics to block inflammation.
- Change in diet: Although there aren’t generally any specific dietary restrictions necessary, a diet with low impact on areas of the intestine that can be narrowed by inflammation is usually recommended. Also, other, more sophisticated changes are likely to be advised by your doctor and dietician.
- Surgery: This is a last-resort treatment option if lifestyle changes and medications don’t work. However, three-quarters of people with Crohn’s disease usually undergo elective surgery at some point.
Treatment of IBS:
Treatment options for IBS depend on the type of IBS (IBS-C with constipation, IBS-D with diarrhea, or IBS-Mixed, alternating diarrhea with constipation) and may include:
- Eating a diet with more (or less!) fiber
- Avoiding stress, or learning ways to cope with stress
- Taking a probiotic for IBS
