When to Consult

  • Persistent diarrhoea with blood or mucus
  • Cramping abdominal pain, weight loss, or fatigue
  • Delayed growth or low haemoglobin in adolescents
  • Perianal pain, fistula, or strictures
  • Repeated steroid courses without sustained relief
  • Existing IBD with new fevers, severe pain, or dehydration

Understanding IBD in the Indian Context

Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are rising in India, especially in urban communities with Westernised diets yet high spice intake. Telangana sees delayed diagnosis because early bleeding or diarrhoea is often dismissed.

Ajuda's IBD Clinic matches international protocols with local realities. We coordinate biologics, nutrition, mental health, and surgery options so patients sustain work, education, and travel plans without fear of sudden flares.

When to Consult Our IBD Specialists

⚠️ Seek urgent care if you notice:

  • ✓ More than 6 bloody motions a day
  • ✓ High fever, severe abdominal pain, or dehydration
  • ✓ Sudden abdominal swelling or inability to pass stools
  • ✓ Dizziness or fainting from blood loss

For milder flares or ongoing symptoms, schedule a specialist review within a week to avoid steroid dependency and complications.

Our Diagnostic Approach

Detailed History

We explore symptom patterns, family history, TB exposure, and prior therapies.

Lab & Stool Markers

CRP, ESR, calprotectin, and TB screening inform the next steps.

Endoscopy & Imaging

High-definition colonoscopy and MR enterography document extent and severity.

Team-Based Planning

Our IBD board aligns medication, nutrition, and surgical options.

Treatment Pathways

Induction controls active inflammation; biologics or small molecules maintain deep remission; nutrition and mental health support keep resilience high. Surgical teams stand ready for strictures or fistulas, following ERAS protocols for fast recovery.

What to Expect: Your Care Journey

Week 0: evaluation and induction start → Month 3: steroid taper + remission check → Month 6: mucosal healing assessment → Year 1: maintenance with vaccination updates and flare-prevention coaching.

Technology & Innovation

Our infusion lounge integrates EMR alerts for labs, vaccinations, and infection screening. Tele hotlines enable early rescue therapy, reducing emergency admissions from Warangal, Nalgonda, or Karimnagar.

Preventing Complications

Timely management prevents toxic megacolon, perforation, malnutrition, and colon cancer. Surveillance colonoscopy tracks dysplasia in long-standing colitis.
