Colonoscopy
कोलोनोस्कोपी (बड़ी आंत की जांच)
कोलोनोस्कोपी (Colonoscopy) बड़ी आंत (colon) और मलाशय (rectum) के अंदरूनी हिस्से की दूरबीन जांच है। इसके लिए एक लंबी, लचीली ट्यूब (कोलोनोस्कोप) को मलद्वार के जरिए आंत में डाला जाता है। यह जांच लंबे समय से चल रही कब्ज, दस्त, मल में खून आना, वजन कम होना और बड़ी आंत के कैंसर या पॉलिप्स (मस्सों) का पता लगाने के लिए की जाती है।

Bowel Cleanliness Check
The clinical team verifies that your bowel is completely clear (stool should be yellow, clear liquid).
Sedation Delivery
An IV sedative is administered. You will fall into a light sleep, making the procedure pain-free.
Scope Insertion
The colonoscope is gently inserted through the rectum and advanced to the end of the colon (cecum). Carbon dioxide or water is used to open up the folds.

पूछे जाने वाले मुख्य सवाल — FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions about Colonoscopy procedures.
हाँ, आंतों को साफ करना (bowel prep) सबसे महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है। यदि आंतें साफ नहीं होंगी, तो डॉक्टर अंदरूनी हिस्से को ठीक से नहीं देख पाएंगे और छोटे पॉलिप्स छूट सकते हैं।
Doctor's Personal Advice
"Colonoscopy is not just a diagnostic tool; it is a life-saving preventive procedure. If you have bleeding in your stool or chronic digestive changes, do not brush them off as 'piles.' Get evaluated properly."
