A colonoscopy is a straightforward and highly effective procedure used to examine the colon for abnormalities. While the examination itself typically takes 20 to 30 minutes, the full process includes preparation and recovery. Patients begin a low-fibre diet several days before and complete bowel preparation the day prior. After the procedure, a short recovery period allows the sedative to wear off. Proper preparation ensures accurate results and supports better digestive health outcomes.
