Best General surgeons in Kottakkal

A general surgeon operates on a patient's skin, breast, endocrine system, soft tissues, and abdominal organs. They identify, address, and care for illnesses that need surgery. They are skilled in both elective and emergency care. In addition to guaranteeing patient recovery and monitoring for issues, general surgeons in Kottakkal at Aster MIMS also offer preoperative and postoperative care.

Acute stomach discomfort, sudden weight loss, lumps or tumours, persistent vomiting and nausea, jaundice or gastrointestinal bleeding, and acute or chronic infections are among the symptoms that general surgeons assess. Along with evaluating appendicitis, gallbladder illness, and hernia symptoms, they also determine whether surgery is required for a successful course of treatment.

Physical examinations, medical histories, and diagnostic testing, including blood work, imaging investigations (ultrasound, CT scans, MRIs), and endoscopic procedures, are all used by general surgeons in Kottakkal at Aster MIMS to identify diseases. They evaluate these findings to pinpoint surgical problems such as tumours, blockages, perforations, and infections and then determine the best surgical courses of action by the diagnosis.

For conventional procedures, general surgeons employ a range of tools, such as scalpels, forceps, retractors, surgical instruments, and staples/sutures. They use robotic surgical equipment, laparoscopes, and endoscopes for minimally invasive surgeries. Imaging instruments such as C-arm fluoroscopes and ultrasound machines facilitate precise surgical positioning and diagnosis.

Appendicectomies, cholecystectomies, hernia repairs, intestinal resections, and mastectomies are among the procedures that general surgeons in Kottakkal at Aster MIMS commonly perform. They also treat infections, do emergency procedures, and manage trauma patients. Wound care, pain management, and problem monitoring are all part of postoperative care to ensure patients heal well and avoid surgical site infections.
