Gastrointestinal pathology
EDUCATIONAL VIDEOS
Approximately 19% of problems managed in general practice are labelled as symptoms and complaints and, of these, a significant number are unresolved gastrointestinal symptoms. Abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea, nausea and digestive problems are some of the more common presentations of this type in general practice.
