Esophageal Diseases – GERD, Oesophageal Cancer, and Hiatus Hernia
Esophageal diseases can significantly impact digestive health, causing discomfort and complications. Dr. Shabeer Ahamed, a skilled Specialist Gastroenterologist, provides comprehensive care for various esophageal diseases, including GERD, oesophageal cancer, and hiatus hernia, ensuring effective diagnosis and treatment for patients in need of expert care.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common esophageal conditions, where stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation, heartburn, and discomfort. Left untreated, GERD can lead to serious complications, including esophageal ulcers and strictures. Dr. Shabeer specializes in diagnosing and managing GERD using advanced tools such as pH monitoring, endoscopy, and manometry, offering personalized treatment options.
Esophageal cancer is a life-threatening condition that can develop due to chronic irritation from GERD, smoking, or excessive alcohol consumption. Early detection is crucial for effective treatment. Dr. Shabeer uses state-of-the-art diagnostic techniques to identify esophageal cancer in its early stages, offering treatment options such as endoscopic procedures, chemotherapy, or surgery.
A hiatus hernia occurs when part of the stomach pushes through the diaphragm into the chest cavity, leading to symptoms such as acid reflux, chest pain, and difficulty swallowing. Dr. Shabeer offers minimally invasive treatments for hiatus hernia, including lifestyle modifications, medications, and, in some cases, endoscopic treatments
