Doing painless gastroenteroscopy is less harmful to the body, the harm of painless gastroenteroscopy mainly comes from the side effects of anesthesia, gastroenteroscopy on the mucous membrane tissue stimulation and so on.
1. Side effects of anesthetics: before doing painless gastroenteroscopy, anesthetics will be used to achieve the effect of sedation and analgesia, to reduce the pain of gastroenteroscopy, and part of the population is allergic to anesthesia or resistant to anesthetics, too much or too little anesthetics may cause respiratory depression, arrhythmia and other symptoms, but the chance of occurrence is very small.
2. Stimulation of mucosal tissue by gastroenteroscopy: As gastroenteroscopy has to deepen the apparatus into the gastrointestinal department, if it is not operated properly, it may damage the gastrointestinal mucosa, and at the same time, due to the expansion of the apparatus into the gastric and intestinal cavities, it may cause abdominal distension, constipation and other symptoms, but the chances of this happening are also small, so painless gastroenteroscopy is less harmful to the body.
