strictures

How are Strictures Treated?

Treatment options depend on the location and severity of the stricture:
- Dilations: Endoscopic or balloon dilations can be used to widen the narrowed area.
- Surgery: In severe cases, surgical intervention may be required to remove the narrowed segment or to create a bypass.
- Medications: Anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics may be prescribed to manage underlying conditions contributing to the stricture.
- Nutritional Support: For children with significant nutritional issues, special feeding techniques or supplements may be necessary.
