Digestive diseases are disorders of the digestive tract, which is sometimes called the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
In digestion, food and drink are broken down into small parts (called nutrients) that the body can absorb and use as energy and building blocks for cells.
The digestive tract is made up of the esophagus (food tube), stomach, large and small intestines, liver, pancreas, and the gallbladder.
Digestive diseases include:
Gallstones, cholecystitis, and cholangitis
Rectal problems, such as anal fissure, hemorrhoids, proctitis, and rectal prolapse
Esophagus problems, such as stricture (narrowing) and achalasia and esophagitis
Stomach problems, including gastritis, gastric ulcers usually caused by Helicobacter pylori infection and cancer
Liver problems, such as hepatitis B or hepatitis C, cirrhosis, liver failure, and autoimmune and alcoholic hepatitis
Pancreatitis and pancreatic pseudocyst
Intestinal problems, such as polyps and cancer, infections, celiac disease, Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, malabsorption, short bowel syndrome, and intestinal ischemia
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease, and hiatal hernia
