The importance of early diagnosis for inflammatory bowel disease and bowel cancer
Toilet talk generally isn’t considered polite conversation. However, keeping silent about your bowel health can prove to be dangerous. Too often, those suffering from gastroenterological conditions such as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) or bowel cancer are diagnosed late during more advanced stages, which can have an impact on disease prognosis. Dr Polychronis Pavlidis, consultant gastroenterologist and expert in all things gastrointestinal, stresses the importance of early diagnosis for these conditions.
