Colonic diverticuli
After a long period of constipation, some patients develop diverticuli in their large intestine (colon and rectum). These are usually harmless.

Sometimes, however, they can bleed. Occasionally, this bleeding may be so severe that it needs surgery.





Informative pics. I didn’t know a Diverticuli looks like this.
Glad you found them useful. I’ll post some more interesting photos if I take any more
I didn’t know what is gastronitestinal disease until I got a fren who got it recently. Hence, did a bit research on it. Was a rude scare.
Gastrointestinal disease is everything that’s wrong about the digestive tract. Even a simple diarrhoea or “gas” are disorders of the GI tract. Some are simple problems. Some are life-threatening. There’s a wide spectrum.

Constipation doesn’t cause cancer. It might cause piles, fissures, this, that, etc… Dun worry, take lotsa fibres!
