A member asked:
Would diverticulitis cause constant dull burning pain around the rlq, even with very regular bm, and will a regular or capsule colonoscopy, or an mri detect it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A colonoscopy would be a better diagnostic procedure as the doctor can do a biopsy if needed. Wish you good health!
