A member asked:
Hello sir, my mother, is 65, and has diagnosed with a tranverse colon wall thickness 5mm, ultrasound scanning done, is it normal, what is the treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Treatment: Depends on diagnosis. So far, you only have thickness, but this could be infection or tumor. Ask her doctor if she needs to have colonoscopy for more accurate diagnosis.
