A colonoscopy with stricture dilation is a procedure where a doctor uses a thin, flexible tube with a camera to examine the inside of your colon and then gently stretches (dilates) any areas where the colon has become abnormally narrowed. You might need this procedure if you have symptoms like difficulty passing stool or abdominal pain caused by scar tissue or other conditions that have narrowed your colon. During the procedure, you'll be sedated for comfort, and the doctor will pass the scope through your entire colon, locate any narrowed areas, and use special tools to carefully widen them.
