IS IT TIME TO SCHEDULE A COLONOSCOPY?


Most people dread colonoscopies, but these procedures can save your life! Not only are they brief and painless, but they are considered one of the most effective cancer prevention methods out there. Still, roughly 40 percent of Americans over 50 avoid scheduling an exam. The American Cancer Society estimates that as many as 60 percent of colon cancer deaths could be prevented with a simple colonoscopy, so stop putting off your procedure and contact the efficient medical team at New York Gastroenterology & Endoscopy. Our team has nearly a decade of experience and performs all colonoscopies in the comfort of our own office.


WHAT IS A COLONOSCOPY PROCEDURE?


A colonoscopy is a test that can locate ulcers, colon polyps, tumors, or areas of inflammation in the inner lining of your large intestine. During a colonoscopy, a doctor inserts a thin, flexible tube called a colonoscope into the colon. The colonoscope has a small video camera attached to it so the doctor can take pictures or video of the large intestine and the lower part of the small intestine. Tissue samples are also taken at this time to check for abnormal growths. The entire procedure takes anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours.


THE BENEFITS OF A COLONOSCOPY


A colonoscopy is a routine procedure for people over 50 that screens for colorectal cancer and other colon health problems. Colonoscopy benefits include finding out the cause of:

Changes in your bowel activity such as chronic constipation, diarrhea, or dark/black stools

Unexplained weight loss

Iron deficiency anemia

Blood in the stool or bleeding from the anus

Long-term abdominal pain


PREPARING FOR A COLONOSCOPY


Before a colonoscopy procedure, a doctor from New York Gastroenterology & Endoscopy may direct you to prep your bowels by drinking only a clear liquid diet for 24-72 hours. Tell your doctor about any medications that you are taking and arrange for someone to take you home after the test because you may be given a sedative to relax.The night before the test, the doctor will recommend a laxative solution or tablet to thoroughly clean out your colon. Do not eat any solid foods after the colon prep and stop drinking liquids 6 to 8 hours before the colonoscopy procedure.


RISKS OF A COLONOSCOPY


Since a colonoscopy is a routine procedure, there are very few side effects. You may have some gas and bloating afterwards, but that should dissipate in a day or two. A little blood in your stool is also normal, although talk to your doctor if you continue to pass blood or blood clots, have abdominal pain, or have a fever of over 100°F. Some rare complications may include:

Bleeding at the biopsy site

A bad reaction from the sedative

A tear in the rectal wall
