Achalasia Cardia: When Food Struggles to Reach the Stomach

Achalasia cardia is a condition in which the lower oesophageal sphincter (gastroesophageal junction) does not relax properly when food reaches the end of the oesophagus. As a result, food can have difficulty passing into the stomach, leading to symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, regurgitation and a sensation of food getting stuck.

In this reel, Dr. Manoj A. Vyawahare, Senior Consultant Gastroenterologist & Interventional Endoscopist at LGI Hospitals, explains the available treatment approaches for achalasia.

Treatment options may include pneumatic balloon dilatation, laparoscopic surgery (Heller myotomy), or Per-Oral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM). During POEM, the tight muscle at the gastroesophageal junction is cut internally through an endoscopic approach, helping reduce the resistance and improve the passage of food into the stomach.

The right treatment depends on factors such as the type of achalasia, symptoms, investigations and individual patient factors. Early evaluation by a gastroenterologist can help determine the appropriate treatment.

Jaundice Is a Sign, Not a Disease

Yellowing of the eyes or skin is commonly known as jaundice but it is not a disease by itself. It is a sign that may point to an underlying condition affecting the blood, liver, or bile ducts.

Some possible causes include:
🔹 Haemolytic anaemia – rapid breakdown of red blood cells can increase bilirubin levels.
🔹 Inherited conditions such as Gilbert’s syndrome – can cause elevated indirect bilirubin.
🔹 Liver diseases – including viral hepatitis and cirrhosis, which can affect bilirubin processing.
🔹 Bile duct obstruction – gallstones or, in some cases, tumours can block the normal flow of bile.

Finding the cause of jaundice is important. Depending on the clinical situation, doctors may recommend blood tests and imaging such as ultrasound or MRI/MRCP to identify the underlying problem.

In this reel, Dr. Prashant Bhandarkar, Gastroenterologist & Advanced Therapeutic Endoscopist at LGI Hospitals, explains the different causes of jaundice and how they can be evaluated.

Can liver damage be reversed? 🩺

Not all liver damage is permanent. The possibility of recovery depends on the cause, severity and stage of liver disease. In many cases, identifying the problem early and addressing its underlying cause can help prevent further damage and, in some conditions, allow the liver to recover.

In this reel, Dr. Prashant Bhandarkar, Consultant Gastroenterologist & Advanced Therapeutic Endoscopist at LGI Hospitals, explains what you should know about liver damage and recovery.

If you have persistent symptoms, abnormal liver test results or concerns about your liver health, timely medical evaluation can help.

Yellow eyes or skin? Don’t ignore the signs.

Jaundice is not a disease itself, it can be a sign of an underlying condition affecting the liver, bile ducts or other parts of the digestive system.

Along with yellowing of the eyes or skin, signs such as dark urine, pale stools, nausea or loss of appetite and unusual fatigue may occur. Identifying the underlying cause is important for appropriate treatment.

The good news is that timely medical evaluation can help determine what’s behind the jaundice and guide the right care.

In this carousel, learn about the warning signs, evaluation and simple habits that can support liver health.

If you notice yellowing of your eyes or skin, get yourself checked rather than ignoring it.

Umbilical Hernia: Know the Signs & Seek Timely Treatment

Have you noticed a swelling or bulge around your belly button that becomes more prominent when you stand, walk, cough or strain, but reduces or disappears when you lie down?

This can be a sign of an umbilical hernia.

An umbilical hernia occurs when tissue pushes through a weakened area around the navel, causing a noticeable bulge. While the swelling may sometimes reduce on its own when lying down, an enlarging or persistent hernia should not be ignored.

Can medicines cure a hernia?
Medications cannot close the opening causing a hernia. Surgical repair is the definitive treatment when treatment is indicated.

In this reel, Dr. Yogesh A. Bang, Consultant Surgical Gastroenterologist, explains how an umbilical hernia presents and why timely surgical consultation is important.

If you notice a new or increasing swelling around your navel, consult a qualified surgeon for proper evaluation.

Umbilical Hernia: How Is It Treated? 🩺

An umbilical hernia occurs when tissue such as fat or part of the intestine pushes through a weakness in the abdominal wall around the belly button, often causing a visible bulge.

In this video, Dr. Yogesh A. Bang, Consultant Surgical Gastroenterologist at LGI Hospitals, explains how an umbilical hernia is treated and why medicines cannot close the underlying opening in the abdominal wall.

When surgery is required, the weakness is repaired and a mesh is placed to reinforce the abdominal wall and strengthen the repaired area. The procedure may be performed through an incision below the belly button or through a laparoscopic approach, depending on the individual case.

The mesh provides additional strength to the repair and is used to help prevent the hernia from recurring.

Watch Dr. Yogesh explain the treatment approach and understand why timely surgical evaluation is important for an umbilical hernia.

IBS vs IBD: What’s the Difference? 🤔🩺

IBS and IBD may sound similar, and both can cause digestive symptoms like abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits but they are two different conditions.

In this informative video, Dr. Manoj A. Vyawahare, Senior Consultant Gastroenterologist & Interventional Endoscopist at LGI Hospitals, explains the key differences between Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and why understanding the difference matters.

🔹 IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is a disorder of gut-brain interaction that can cause recurring abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, or a combination of bowel changes. It does not cause visible damage or inflammation in the digestive tract.

🔹 IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) refers mainly to conditions such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, where inflammation affects the digestive tract. Symptoms can include persistent diarrhoea, abdominal pain, blood or mucus in the stool, fatigue and unintended weight loss.

While some symptoms can overlap, IBS and IBD are not the same, and persistent or concerning digestive symptoms should be evaluated by a medical professional rather than self-diagnosed.

Watch the video as Dr. Manoj explains how these conditions differ, what symptoms to pay attention to, and when it may be important to consult a gastroenterologist.

Your gut symptoms deserve the right diagnosis and the right approach.
