Colonic polyps are small growths on the lining of the colon, often harmless at first but potentially precancerous. Dr. Harshad Joshi in Mumbai provides expert screening and removal of these polyps to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.
Polyps can cause symptoms such as rectal bleeding, abdominal discomfort, or changes in bowel habits, but they often go unnoticed. That’s why regular colon cancer screening is recommended, particularly for individuals over 45 or with a history of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) like Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
Using advanced tools like colonoscopy and ESD, Dr. Joshi can detect and remove polyps safely and effectively during the diagnostic procedure itself. If left untreated, some polyps can develop into cancer over time.
Early removal of colonic polyps is a crucial preventive step and a core part of gastrointestinal health management.
If you're due for a colon check-up, consult Dr. Harshad Joshi in Mumbai for safe and thorough screening.
