What could an irritated colon mean?

An irritated colon may relate to diverticulitis, colitis, an infection, or another condition affecting the large intestine. Diverticulitis occurs when small pouches in the colon become inflamed or infected, while colitis is a broader term for inflammation within the colon. Symptoms of an irritated colon may include abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, nausea, fever, or blood in the stool. Because several conditions can cause similar symptoms, Dr. Cernero reviews your health history and symptom patterns before recommending irritated colon treatment near Sherman.

Why should I choose Dr. Cernero for colon treatment?

Dr. Aaron Cernero is a board-certified general surgeon with experience in complex abdominal and colon procedures. He takes time to review your symptoms, explain your options, and help you understand whether nonsurgical medical care or surgery may fit your needs and the stage of inflammation. To address colon concerns, Dr. Cernero also uses advanced surgical methods, including minimally invasive robotic surgery when appropriate. His honest guidance and compassionate care help patients feel informed and supported throughout treatment and recovery.

When should I seek urgent care for colon symptoms?

Seek urgent medical care for severe or worsening abdominal pain, heavy rectal bleeding, repeated vomiting, fainting, confusion, or signs of dehydration. Fever with ongoing pain, a swollen abdomen, or an inability to pass stool or gas may also require prompt evaluation.

Dr. Cernero was wonderful. He took time to answer all my questions and didn't rush me out (despite his full schedule) like so many doctors do. He even prayed with me before my surgery. That's a first! Definitely recommend.
