Is it painful to have a colonoscopy? Is a painless colonoscopy painful

Well, I think it still hurts to do colonoscopy, and it still needs to be excreted for a long time, and everything in the intestines has to be excreted, so it is quite a crime to do colonoscopy.

Colonoscopy is to use anesthetic, otherwise it will be very painful for a long time, so don't worry too much, the current medical equipment is very advanced, so it will not make you very painful, let you drink the medicine in advance, and will also give you anesthetic, so it will not hurt.

Colonoscopy is painful, and colonoscopy is done first.

Before you need to drink laxatives, you need to drink a lot of water, about 3000ml, some people may be more painful in the process of drinking laxatives, and some people can't tolerate a lot of water, which may cause vomiting.

Colonoscopy is generally painless, mainly due to the use of drugs such as propofol for intravenous anesthesia during colonoscopy. The patient is asleep during the whole procedure, not awake, so there is no pain during the examination. However, some patients are more puzzled and have pain after colonoscopy, which is mainly caused by the accumulation of intestinal gas due to the following reasons:

1. During colonoscopy, the doctor will inflate the intestinal lumen. Lesions in the intestinal lumen can only be detected by inflation. If inflation is poor, small polyps and other lesions may be missed during colonoscopy;

2. Some patients do not have sufficient intestinal preparation before colonoscopy, and there is more fecal water left in the intestinal lumen, which will increase the colonoscopy operation time during the colonoscopy operation, and the doctor needs to rinse the excess fecal water before observing the intestinal lumen, so in this process, there may be more gas rushing into the intestinal lumen. Some patients should find small polyps under colonoscopy and undergo colonoscopy**;

3. Some patients do not have a high tolerance for intestinal gas, and such patients usually have abdominal distension and pain after colonoscopy, and cannot pass gas, which is also a pain for patients;

4. During the operation, the doctor will try to attract the injected gas out when exiting the colonoscope. However, some of the gas will enter the small intestine through diffusion, resulting in the inability to pump the gas clean during the colonoscopy ultrasound, so some ** colonoscopy patients will have abdominal distension and pain after examination.

。During the examination, in order to see the intestinal road conditions clearly, the doctor will continue to inflate and pump in the intestine in order to facilitate the advancement of the colonoscope, and the stomach will feel bloated and stuffy when inflated, and this pain is within an acceptable range. If the above figure can be shown, you can see that the colonoscope will go through three curves in the process of advancing, the first is the sigmoid colon area, the second is the spleen flexure of the descending colon to the transverse colon, the third is the hepatic flexure of the transverse colon turning to the ascending colon, through these three curves, it is a great test for the doctor and the patient, if the doctor's skill is skillful, can pass these three curves lightly, then the patient will not have great pain, but if the doctor is not skilled, then it will be a more painful thing.

These three curves, after the completion of the process of people recalled, the degree of pain from high to low is splenic flexure, sigmoid colon and liver flexure, that is to say, the second is the saddest, which is in line with the content I found in the colonoscopy operation technique: the spleen curvature is the most test of the doctor's patience and skill, this bend will generally take a long time, in the technique needs to be more trying. Once the spleen curvature is passed, then the most difficult level of colonoscopy can be regarded as clearing, and the rest should be bearable.

When the mirror is withdrawn, it is said that there is no pain.

Many people know that the occurrence of cancer can be completely avoided by giving artificial intervention in the early stage of intestinal lesions. But why are there still some people who find that bowel cancer is already at an advanced stage? One of the important reasons explained by anorectal experts is that they have a wrong concept, thinking that colonoscopy is very painful, so as to delay the precious time of early detection, early diagnosis, and early diagnosis.

Is colonoscopy painful, is colonoscopy really that painful? The vast majority of people will say that listening to someone say that the colonoscopy is very painful, so they have a fear of it. This is nothing more than a rumor.

With the rapid development of modern endoscopic equipment and the increasing maturity of endoscopy technology, many people smile faintly after the examination and say: But that's it. A small number of patients were able to sleep happily and complete the examination unconsciously.

Most patients expressed a willingness to undergo another colonoscopy if necessary. The doctor who is examining the patient is doing colonoscopy to analyze the causes of pain during colonoscopy The main causes of pain during colonoscopy are: 1. Intestinal flatulence and hydrops; 2. The intestines are stretched; 3. There are adhesions in the intestine itself (such as after abdominal surgery); 4. The patient is nervous, has a low pain threshold, and is naturally afraid of pain.

In addition, everyone's condition is different, and the longer and deeper the intestines, the more uncomfortable it will be. Some people's intestines are more curved, or even a few turns, which is difficult to do, and if the doctor's examination skills are insufficient, as well as the imperfection of the examination technology and equipment, of course, it will be more painful. An experienced endoscopist can target all of these causes.

Of course, the accurate diagnosis of the disease is also inseparable from the active cooperation of the patient, and it is necessary to carry out careful and meticulous bowel preparation according to the doctor's requirements, and try to clear the stool. Whether there is a history of abdominal surgery, whether you are afraid of pain on weekdays, etc., should be explained to the consulting doctor.

The advantages of the microscopic intestinal endoscopy technique are soft and the field of view is large, which avoids the feeling of incompatibility to the examinee; Visual operating system, clear image, lesion collection can be arbitrarily magnified; Record and save images in a variety of ways, and store image data in the computer; The image can be shared by multiple people, which is conducive to the doctor's reasonable and effective treatment of the patient**.

Before the colonoscopy, the doctor will ask you to do a liver function test, have blood drawn, and you can't eat breakfast before you go. After three days, the test results will come back, and if there are no problems, you will be notified for a colonoscopy. At this time, the doctor will give you 2 bottles of mannitol, a total of 500cc, for you to drink a few hours before the examination, and then drink 1000cc of water.

Of course, it will be a little uncomfortable, but if you are sick, you must check it, otherwise, the consequences will be serious. Whether it hurts or not, everyone feels different
