    Curious Questions

    Vomiting and excessive weight loss can be symptoms of serious conditions such as stomach and intestinal diseases, thyroid problems, cancer. Such symptoms should be evaluated by a specialist doctor.

    When a serious disease underlying such symptoms is detected, for example tumours of the stomach or intestines, surgical intervention may be necessary. Surgery may be performed to stop the progression of the disease or to relieve symptoms.

    Procedures such as gastrointestinal surgeries, bariatric surgery, stomach reduction surgeries, tumour removal are commonly applicable for such conditions.
