Episode 25
Welcome to Sick Enough, the podcast about hospital doctors, hospital issues, and the health conditions we commonly encounter.
Have you ever heard of the duodenum? What's the difference between the colon and large intestine? Ever wondered what the appendix actually does? Have you ever wondered why you get hiccups? We're beginning a series on gastrointestinal topics (like GI bleeding), but before we delve into how things go wrong in the GI tract, we wanted to briefly discuss how the GI tract normally works. We also review a little anatomy, and answer some frequent questions about the GI tract.
